Carolina Panthers: Ron Rivera optimistic about return of Greg Olsen
The Panthers head coach is optimistic about the return of his tight end.
In what has been a down season, I finally have some good news few Carolina Panthers fans. Head coach Ron Rivera thinks tight end Greg Olsen could play in 2019.
Now, for starters let me just say that I think this is a crazy proposition. Olsen battled injuries through much of the 2018 season and back on December 2, it sounded like he was done for maybe the rest of his career. Even still, Rivera maintains a sliver of optimism that Olsen could return next season. The head coach told Max Henson of Panthers.com that “He believes Greg Olsen is eager to begin rehab and continue his playing career.”
