Greg Olsen – Noteworthy – Injury
TE Greg Olsen is listed as active for Sunday’s game at the Washington Redskins, the team announced. The Panthers officially listed Olsen as questionable for Sunday’s game, which marks the three-time Pro Bowl selection’s return to game action after sustaining a fractured right foot in a season-opening 16-8 win over the Dallas Cowboys. Olsen missed nine games last season with a similar injury to the same foot. However, the screw that was placed in his foot to help the injury heal prevented this break from being as problematic.
