Carolina Panthers tight end Greg Olsen exited the team’s season-opener against Dallas with a foot injury and will not return.
Olsen left the game late in the first quarter after recording two catches for 33 yards, and was visibly frustrated on the sidelines. When Olsen returned to the bench after halftime, he was wearing a walking boot on his right foot and using crutches.
There is no immediate timetable for his return.
That right foot is the same one Olsen injured in Week 2 last season, when he suffered a Jones fracture and was placed on injured reserve.
