(AP) — New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave has been taken to Carolinas Medical Center after suffering a concussion in the first quarter of Sunday's game against the Carolina Panthers following a hit from safety Xavier Woods. He has been ruled out for the remainder of the game. Olave was coming across the middle on a pass route when he was sandwiched by Woods and cornerback Dane Jackson.
