It was a rare offensive outburst from Oliver, who is mostly used as a blocker. It was his second touchdown of the season and a season-high in receptions and yards. While this could be a sign he'll have a greater receiving role in an offense with Josh Dobbs fully integrated at quarterback, he had just two targets in his first two games Dobbs behind center.
