Chris Olave won't be active when the New Orleans Saints kick off with the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday, and there's at least a possibility the star wide receiver won't play another down this season. Olave suffered the fourth concussion of his brief NFL career last week, which can have long-lasting impacts on his health and wellbeing.

All that's certain is that Olave has already been ruled out for Sunday's game. Beyond that, who can say?

"Everything's on the table," interim head coach Darren Rizzi said Friday, when injured reserve came up as a possibility for Olave. That determination hasn't been made yet and Olave is still meeting with concussion specialists and team doctors before making a decision.

A stint on injured reserve would last at least the next four weeks, sidelining Olave for three home games with the Falcons, Cleveland Browns, and Los Angeles Rams as well as the bye in Week 12. But if he's still feeling symptoms and struggling with this brain injury, the better move could be to end his season altogether. We've reached a point where his career in pro football should be considered seriously. Stay tuned for further updates.
