    New Orleans Saints quarterback Spencer Rattler is getting his first NFL start. You do not want to go down early in a game with a rookie QB at helm, but the Saints have done exactly that.

    Rattler's top wide receiver could be out for the rest of the game after an early scary play.

    Chris Olave leaves with injury vs. Bucs

    On a completion, Olave took a helmet on helmet hit. There was no penalty called. Getting jarred, Olave fumbled the football.

    Bucs safety Antoine Winfield Jr. returned the ball for a touchdown. That gave Tampa Bay a 14-0 lead early in the first quarter.

    Olave is getting evaluated for a concussion, according to Pam Oliver. He has been ruled out for the rest of their game against the Buccaneers.

    New Orleans is currently trying to dig themselves out of an early hole against an NFC South rival.
