Chris Olave made a stunning, one-handed catch to help the Saints beat the Panthers and secure their best start to an NFL season in a decade.

Tony Jones Jr ran for two touchdowns and rookie Blake Grupe kicked two field goals as New Orleans Saints beat the Carolina Panthers 20-17 on Monday night, improving to 2-0 for the first time since 2013.

But the highlight of the night was arguably Olave's incredible catch, which kickstarted a stuttering offense and led to Jones Jr's first touchdown.

With a little under seven and a half minutes remaining in the third quarter and the teams tied at 6-6, quarterback Derek Carr sent a long pass downfield towards the left sideline.

Both Olave and covering defender CJ Henderson watched it soar over their shoulders.
