News

  • Inks deal with Seahawks

    Olsen signed a one-year, $7 million contract that has $5.5 million guaranteed with the Seahawks on Tuesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Olsen was also talking with Buffalo and Washington, but he ultimately chose to head west with an opportunity to catch passes from future Hall of Fame quarterback Russell Wilson. The tight end will be 35 years old in March, and he's coming off a modest season where he caught 52 passes for 597 yards and two touchdowns with a mix of inexperienced signal-callers under center. It looks like Olsen has something left in the tank, though, and Wilson will be a major boost to his fantasy value. He's in…read more

  • Talking contract with three teams

    Olsen is in contract negotiations with Buffalo, Washington and Seattle, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: A previous report suggested Olsen could make his decision Friday, choosing between the three aforementioned teams or the start of a new career in broadcasting. The tight end was released by the Panthers at the beginning of February and will celebrate his 35th birthday March 11.

  • Could decide Friday

    Olsen could make a decision Friday between continuing his NFL career or switching to broadcasting work, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.

    Analysis: Olsen recently visited Buffalo, Washington and Seattle, and he also has an open offer from at least one television network. The tight end, who will turn 35 in March, seemingly intends to sign a new contract before the start of the new league year if he does indeed continue his football career.

  • Visits with Buffalo

    Olsen is visiting the Bills on Wednesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Olsen reportedly also has visits lined up with the Seahawks and Redskins. With no immediate deadline to commit to a team and an open offer for a broadcasting job with Fox Sports on standby, the veteran tight end will likely take his time while deciding where (and if) to play football during the 2020 season. He appeared in 14 regular-season games with the Panthers in 2019, hauling in 52 of 82 targets for 597 yards and two touchdowns.

  • Plans to visit Seattle

    Olsen will visit with the Seahawks, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Released by Carolina on Monday, the veteran tight end reportedly has visits lined up with the Seahawks, Bills and Redskins. He'll turn 35 in March and has an open offer for a broadcasting job with FOX Sports, but it appears Olsen is leaning toward playing football for at least one more season. The Seahawks could use help at tight end, as Will Dissly (Achilles) is rehabbing from a severe injury for a second time in as many years, while Jacob Hollister was limited to 5.9 yards per target in 2019.

  • Making visits this week

    Olsen is expected to visit the Bills and Redskins in the near future, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Officially released by the Panthers in a cost-cutting move Monday, Olsen has an uncertain future for the first time in his 13-year career. He has connections with the two teams in question, as Buffalo GM Brandon Beane was in Carolina's front office from 2008 through 2016, while Washington head coach Ron Rivera served in the same position during the vast majority of Olsen's tenure with the Panthers. Both the Bills and Redskins have a need at tight end, but Olsen has battled injuries the past…read more

  • Officially moves on from Carolina

    The Panthers released Olsen on Monday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: The two parties already agreed to mutually part ways, and the Panthers made it official Monday. Olsen will turn 35 years old in March, and he'll decide between retirement and signing with another team. According to Richard Deitsch of The Athletic, Olsen has a broadcasting job waiting for him with Fox Sports if he retires. Olsen finished with 52 receptions for 597 yards and two scores over 14 games in 2019.

  • Slated to move on

    Olsen and the Panthers have mutually agreed to part ways after this season, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Olsen's agent, Drew Rosenhaus, noted that his client "is still interested in playing and I will be in communication with other teams after the Super Bowl." Meanwhile, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network notes that the tight could consider moving into the broadcasting realm, but at this point it looks like Olsen is inclined to continue his playing career in 2020, if the right offer comes along.

  • May accept broadcasting gig

    Olsen, who is still weighing retirement, has a broadcasting job waiting for him at Fox Sports if he decides to end his playing career, Richard Deitsch of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Olsen previously suggested he doesn't expect to re-sign with the Panthers, so he's likely facing a transition of one kind or another. The tight end will celebrate his 35th birthday in March, and he already has some experience doing broadcast work for Fox. A decision should come within the next few months.

  • Expected to retire or join new team

    Olsen doesn't anticipate playing another season for the Panthers, Joe Person of The Athletic reports. "I just think sometimes the writing's on the wall," Olsen said. "There hasn't been anything officially."

    Analysis: Olsen has one season remaining on his contract, but the Panthers will save $8.1 million against the 2020 salary cap if he's cut or traded. There's also some chance Olsen opts for retirement, as he'll turn 35 in March after battling foot injuries and a concussion over the past few years. For what it's worth, Panthers teammate Chris Hogan said his conversations with Olsen suggest the tight end wants to continue his NFL career. Regardless of how it happens, a departure from Carolina could free up…read more

  • Good to go

    Olsen (knee) has no injury designation for Sunday's game against the Saints.

    Analysis: Olsen missed Weeks 14 and 15 due to a concussion and was scaled back to 57 percent of snaps in his return to the lineup last week in Indianapolis. He may be healthy enough to handle an every-down role, but that doesn't necessarily mean the Panthers will use him in that capacity. Ian Thomas could split snaps with Olsen for a second straight week.

  • Limited Thursday

    Olsen (knee) was limited at Thursday's practice, Steve Reed of the Associated Press reports.

    Analysis: Sidelined Weeks 14 and 15 due to a concussion, Olsen returned to action this past Sunday at Indianapolis, hooking up with first-time starting QB Will Grier twice for 33 yards on five targets. The veteran tight end came out of the contest with a knee injury, which so far has capped his reps this week. Olsen will attempt to ditch the issue entirely by the release of Friday's practice report.

  • Slowed by knee issue

    Olsen was listed as a limited participant on the Panthers' estimated practice report Wednesday due to a knee injury, Alaina Getzenberg of The Charlotte Observer reports.

    Analysis: Olsen was sidelined for Weeks 14 and 15 while recovering from a concussion, but the Panthers' latest practice report reveals that he's contending with a new concern heading into Sunday's season finale against the Saints. The fact that the Panthers didn't list him as a non-participant on their report bodes well for his chances of being available once the weekend arrives.

  • Snags two passes in return

    Olsen caught two of five passes for 33 yards during Sunday's 38-6 loss to Indianapolis.

    Analysis: Following a two-game absence with a concussion, Olsen made a big 28-yard reception up the seam midway through the first quarter. He was quiet after that as rookie Will Grier had more downs than ups in his career debut. Olsen had a solid outing against Week 17's opponent, New Orleans, during their Week 12 matchup, snagging five passes for 44 yards. Unless Grier takes a step in his second game, however, Olsen may have trouble matching that output in the season finale.

  • Ready to return

    Olsen (concussion) has no injury designation for Sunday's game in Indianapolis.

    Analysis: Olsen cleared the NFL's concussion protocol at the beginning of the week, setting the stage for a return to the lineup after two missed games. His presence pushes Ian Thomas back to a reserve role, though it isn't out of the question for the Panthers to reduce Olsen's workload over the final two weeks of the season. The 34-year-old tight end played at least 78 percent of snaps on offense in each of Carolina's first 11 games, before the concussion knocked him out early in a Week 13 loss to…read more

  • Clears concussion protocol

    Olsen said Monday that he cleared the NFL's concussion protocol, Steve Reed of the Associated Press reports.

    Analysis: Though he was able to practice on a limited basis last week, Olsen ultimately was inactive for a second straight game in Sunday's 30-24 loss to the Seahawks. His removal from the protocol implies that he received clearance from an independent neurologist at some point since Friday's practice, so he should be available next weekend in Indianapolis. Olsen's impending return to the lineup should result in a decreased role for Ian Thomas, who started at tight end the past two weeks.

  • Out for another game

    Olsen (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Seattle, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Olsen was limited at practice Wednesday through Friday, unable to advance to full participation. His absence should lead to another start for Ian Thomas, who caught five of 10 targets for 57 yards and a touchdown in last week's 40-20 loss to Atlanta while logging 86 percent of the offensive snaps.

  • Practicing Friday

    Olsen (concussion) took part in Friday's practice, Alaina Getzenberg of The Charlotte Observer reports.

    Analysis: Olsen still hasn't cleared the league's concussion protocol, but he was able to practice on a limited basis all three days this week. That activity bodes well for his chances of returning to action Sunday against the Seahawks if an independent neurologist is willing to sign off on his availability.

    Published: Fri, Dec 13 at 8:21am by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Still in protocol

    Interim coach Perry Fewell said Thursday that Olsen remains in the NFL's concussion protocol, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Olsen has maintained his on-field activity (limited) in back-to-back practices to start Week 15 prep, per Alaina Getzenberg of The Charlotte Observer. Whenever he reaches the fifth and final phase of the protocol, an independent neurologist will have to clear Olsen of symptoms before he can take part in game action. Whether or not that occurs this week remains to be seen, but Ian Thomas and Chris Manhertz are prepared to man tight end in the event of another DNP from Olsen.

  • Logs another practice

    Olsen (concussion) practiced again Thursday, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Olsen was limited at Wednesday's practice, so we'll have to see if that was the case again Thursday, or if the tight end graduated to full participation. As of Wednesday, Olsen remained in the NFL's concussion protocol, but his ability to log back-to-back practices suggests that he's headed in the right direction as Sunday's game against the Seahawks approaches.

  • Limited participant Wednesday

    Olsen (concussion) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Olsen was concussed Week 13 against the Redskins when he incurred a helmet-to-helmet hit from linebacker Ryan Anderson. He proceeded to miss every practice last week before being ruled out for this past Sunday's game in Atlanta. Interim coach Perry Fewell told Joe Person of The Athletic that Olsen remains in the concussion protocol as of Wednesday. Nonetheless, the veteran tight end has taken a step in the right direction with three games remaining on the schedule.

  • Goes through individual drills

    Olsen (concussion) is participating in individual drills during Wednesday's practice, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Though Olsen sat out Sunday's 40-20 loss to the Falcons, he at least took a step forward in the Panthers' last practice of that week by working out off to the side. His ability to put in some individual work Wednesday marks another step forward, giving him at least some chance to play this weekend versus the Seahawks. If Olsen is unable to clear the NFL's five-step concussion protocol, Ian Thomas would operate as Carolina's top pass-catching tight end.

  • Ruled out for Week 14

    Olsen (concussion) won't play in Sunday's game against the Falcons, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: With a playoff berth out of the question for Carolina, there was never much chance of Olsen rushing back into action just one week after he suffered a concussion. He was able to get in some work on the side while the Panthers practiced Friday, so a return for a Week 15 game against Seattle is at least a possibility. Ian Thomas should get most of the snaps at tight end for Carolina in Week 14.

  • Trending toward Week 14 absence

    Olsen (concussion) was spotted working out off to the side Friday and wasn't participating with the main group during the Panthers' practice session, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: While Rodrigue notes that Olsen's activity marks a step forward compared to what he was able to do the previous two days, the tight end is still likely to be listed as a non-participant for the third straight practice. The Panthers will provide an official injury designation for Olsen later Friday, but even if he gets a questionable tag, he seems unlikely to clear the five-step concussion protocol ahead of Sunday's game in Atlanta.

  • Spectator for practice

    Olsen (concussion) isn't participating in Thursday's practice, Alaina Getzenberg of The Charlotte Observer reports.

    Analysis: Though he was present at the Panthers' facility, Olsen hasn't progressed enough from the head injury he suffered in the Week 13 loss to the Redskins to even take part in non-contact work. The tight end will likely need to demonstrate meaningful progress in the Panthers' final practice of the week Friday or he'll be at major risk of missing his first game of the season Sunday in Atlanta.

  • Not practicing Wednesday

    Olsen (concussion) isn't participating in Wednesday's practice, Max Henson of the Panthers' official site reports.

    Analysis: Olsen was forced out of Sunday's loss to the Redskins after suffering a concussion following a helmet-to-helmet hit in the third quarter, so his lack of participation to kick off Week 14 doesn't come as much of a surprise. Before returning to action, the veteran tight end will need to fully clear the league's five-step concussion protocol. Ian Thomas should step into a starting role in the event Olsen is forced to miss this weekend's game against the Falcons.

  • Diagnosed with concussion

    Olsen entered the concussion protocol and won't return to Sunday's game against the Redskins, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Olsen took a helmet-to-helmet hit from Washington linebacker Ryan Anderson in the third quarter. The tight end remained on the ground for a bit before going to the blue sideline tent and eventually the locker room. With a concussion diagnosis, Olsen will be subject to the protocol for head injuries before he'll be able to get back on the field. Chris Manhertz and Ian Thomas are the next TEs up for the Panthers.

  • Catches five passes

    Olsen caught five of seven targets for 44 yards in Sunday's 34-31 loss to the Saints.

    Analysis: Olsen placed third on the Panthers in all major receiving categories. Although Sunday's performance only produced a modest yardage total, Olsen has now hauled in at least five passes in three straight games. Next up for the veteran is a matchup against a Redskins defense that's allowed the eighth-most passing touchdowns this season.

  • Solid afternoon against Dirty Birds

    Olsen hauled in all five of his targets for 57 receiving yards during Sunday's 29-3 loss to the Falcons.

    Analysis: The veteran tight end was more than a "safety blanket" option for his young quarterback Kyle Allen in Week 11, tearing off gains of 15 and 26 yards in the passing game -- the second of which helped set up Carolina for its only score of the afternoon. Olsen is starting to look like the matchup-winning option he proved to be early on in the season, combining for 13 catches and 155 yards over his past two outings after averaging just 2.5 receptions and 27.5 yards per game between Weeks 4 and 8.…read more

  • Records 98 receiving yards

    Olsen caught eight of 10 targets for 98 yards during Sunday's 24-16 loss to the Packers.

    Analysis: Olsen drew double-digit targets for the first time this season and hauled in 80 percent of his looks as he finished behind only D.J. Moore in receiving yards. It was a welcome sight for Olsen's fantasy owners, considering he'd topped 50 receiving yards just once over the last five games. The veteran clearly still has the potential to excel in good matchups and will look to do just that next Sunday at home against the Falcons.

  • Catches three passes

    Olsen caught three of five targets for 40 yards in Sunday's 30-20 win over the Titans.

    Analysis: Olsen's output included a catch of 23 yards, marking his longest gain since Week 2. However, it overall was another mediocre display from a fantasy perspective, as Olsen hasn't topped 55 yards or scored a touchdown since Week 3 -- the week Kyle Allen took over under center. In eight games, Olsen now sports 27 receptions on 45 targets for 331 yards and two scores.
