Canal Street Chronicles on Chris Olave

Olave's flat route on 2-point conversion was designed to clear space, not receive.

On the Saints' game-winning 2-point conversion, Olave was not the primary target despite initial confusion. The Saints ran a modified 'Spot' concept where Olave's initial motion to the interior of the 3-receiver bunch and his flat route were designed to pull the flat defender away from the corner route, which was the actual read vs. man coverage. Olave's role was to clear space for the corner route target.
