Twitter reacts to Chris Olave’s first touchdown catch in a Saints uniform
Whew buddy. Chris Olave introduced himself to the NFL in Friday night’s preseason game with the Green Bay Packers, snagging a 20-yard touchdown reception to close out the first half. It’s exactly the sort of play we’re looking for from the New Orleans Saints’ first-round pick, and it drew a range of celebratory reactions from local media and Saints fans on social media. See for yourself:

Chris Olave was good enough to produce an Ian Book TD pass. This team is winning the Super Bowl

Nice touchdown to Olave… but my sentiment on Ian Book remains the same

Points off turnover is the difference in games come regular season. Book to Olave after the Eric Wilson forced fumble is good stuff. Much needed bounce back for Book and a good glimpse into the future with Olave.

Ian Book after finally throwing a nice TD:

That was a well-designed play by the Saints to get WR Chris Olave open — but also a good job by Olave finding the open space between defenders and patiently waiting for the ball to arrive.

The first of many TDs for Chris Olave. Nice job by both Book and Olave

It’s really wild that Olave is really WR3 on this team and honestly prolly the 4th option with AK. Dudes gonna have so many opportunities this year

Anyways take Olave out the game we seen enough

Packers fans watching Olave score and probably not feeling anything at all probably.

Olave WR 1 that plays WR3 …. Don’t worry you’ll understand what I mean soon

But Olave need to be put on ice.
