The New Orleans Saints are entering a long-overdue rebuild, and some reporters across the league believe the team could trade wide receiver Chris Olave. A first-round pick in the 2022 NFL Draft<\/a>, the Ohio State product quickly became one of the league’s better wide receivers, posting consecutive 1,000-yard seasons in his first two years before injuries limited him to just eight games in 2025. Normally, young players at premium positions are building blocks for a rebuild, but Olave’s extensive concussion history makes him something of a long-term risk.<\/p>\n

However, head coach Kellen Moore recently put the Chris Olave trade rumors to bed. During a recent interview, the former quarterback said that he “wouldn’t worry too much” about the rumors, which heavily suggests Olave isn’t going anywhere.<\/p>\n
