Coach Dennis Allen said Wednesday that Olave (concussion) won't play in Thursday's game against the Broncos, John Hendrix of SI.com reports.

In the wake of suffering a concussion this past Sunday versus the Buccaneers, Olave wasn't able to practice this week, indicating he's made little to no progress through the protocol for head injuries. With Olave sidelined and Rashid Shaheed's (knee) status unknown for Week 7 action, the Saints will be particularly short-handed at wide receiver Thursday. Mason Tipton, Cedrick Wilson (ankle) and Bub Means are the options on the active roster, while Equanimeous St. Brown, Kevin Austin, Dante Pettis and Kevin Austin are candidates to be elevated from the practice squad.
