When watching the play live, I knew people would wonder how Olave wasn't targeted, and I'm happy to weigh in. The Saints ran a modified version of the 'Spot' concept, which is a great play call in this area.

STACKED’s take

Olave's role on 2-point play was to clear flat defender for corner route.

Olave was not targeted on the Saints' game-winning 2-point conversion attempt, running a modified 'Spot' concept where his initial motion to the interior of the 3-receiver bunch was designed to pull the flat defender away from the corner route, which it did. The source explains that the throw vs. man on this concept is the corner route, not the flat where Olave lined up.
