Saints wide receiver Chris Olave took a violent hit in New Orleans' 23-22 defeat against the Carolina Panthers on Sunday and was carted off the field after being stabilized on a backboard.
He was then ruled out with a concussion and transported to a hospital in Charlotte for further evaluation before he was eventually released. Olave also suffered a concussion in Week 6 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, which sidelined him in Week 7. He returned to action last week.
Olave let fans know that he was doing OK via a message on X:
