Greg Olsen out after re-injuring surgically repaired right foot

TAMPA, Fla. -- Carolina Panthers Pro Bowl tight end Greg Olsen re-injured his right foot in the second quarter of Sunday's NFC South game at Tampa Bay and will not return.

The injury appeared to happen on a non-contact move in which Olsen miss-stepped.

It is the same foot that forced Olsen to miss three games earlier this season and the same one that required surgery last year and kept the 33-year-old out nine games.

Olsen did not have surgery after re-injuring the foot in the opener against Dallas because the pins from last year's surgery kept the bones from completely breaking.
