The New Orleans Saints are expected to have two of their most important players available for Sunday’s matchup against the Baltimore Ravens. Wide receiver Chris Olave and pass rusher Chase Young are both expected to play, according to reports from Adam Schefter and Ian Rapoport.
Olave was listed as questionable with a hamstring injury after being limited during the practice week. His expected availability gives New Orleans its top receiving threat against a Baltimore secondary that had some uneven moments during its season-opening victory over Indianapolis.

The Ravens' talented trio of cornerbacks
must account for Olave’s speed, route-running ability, and production at multiple levels of the field. Young has been dealing with calf soreness but is still expected to play. His availability creates another important matchup for a Ravens offensive line charged with keeping Lamar Jackson comfortable.
Young can create pressure off the edge and disrupt Baltimore’s run game with his length and athleticism. The Ravens may need additional help in pass protection or use their motion and quick passing game to keep Young from consistently attacking Jackson.
