Chris Olave has broken out of a scoring slump with the New Orleans Saints. It came on a play when he burned the defense of the Los Angeles Rams over the top.
Olave made the play by getting behind his man quickly down the middle of the field on a 3rd-and-9 play. The safety for the Rams was slow with the help while Andy Dalton put a beautiful throw on the money.
The score went for 53 yards:
