Chris Olave Maria Lysaker-USA TODAY Sports

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave was arrested on Monday night for reckless operation of a motor vehicle, according to a report.

Saints reporter Nick Underhill reported on Olave’s arrest. He said that the Saints receiver was traveling 35 mph over the speed limit, resulting in the reckless charge. Underhill says Olave was clocked going 70 in a 35-mph zone.

Olave was processed at the Kenner Jail just west of Louisiana.

Olave’s Saints played on Thursday night in Week 7 and lost 31-24 at home to the Jaguars. Olave had 7 catches for 57 yards in the game. For the season, the second-year Saints receiver has 39 catches for 471 yards and 1 touchdown this season.

A first-round pick out of Ohio State last year, Olave had 72 catches for 1,042 yards and 4 touchdowns last season.
