Saints WR Chris Olave has been discharged from the hospital after being carted off the field during the first quarter of the game against the Carolina Panthers. The incident occurred when he collided with safety Xavier Woods, resulting in immediate medical attention.
Following the hit, Olave was swiftly transported to a nearby medical facility for evaluation. Fortunately, he has been released and is set to return with the team, as reported by NFL.com.
As Olave made a catch across the middle, he was unexpectedly sandwiched between Woods and Panthers cornerback Dane Jackson, leading to a dangerous situation on the field.
In the aftermath of the collision, officials threw four flags, indicating the severity of the incident. Woods was penalized for unnecessary roughness, but he remained in the game, highlighting the ongoing debate about player safety in high-impact sports.
