[Rapoport] #Panthers TE Greg Olsen is in shells and a helmet today, per @PanthersBill. Word was he was hoping to play 4-5 weeks after breaking his foot, without surgery. This Sunday would be week 4 in what may be an impressive return.

 

Woah.... That's aggressive Greg.....

Depends, he said in his interview the screw for stability was already in the foot from surgery, and depending on the severity of the injury we may be at a place where it's logical to return. I'm not a physician so I don't know. 

All you can do is trust the doctors, and what the player believes he can accomplish, but if X-Rays are clear, I don't see why you don't play him if he believes he can go. 

I've fractured my 4th and 5th metatarsals in each foot, it was right around this time frame I was able to play again, and this is obviously without NFL caliber rehab.

So he will be back against the Giants? Hopefully he doesn't get hurt like Williams.

It’s incredibly unlikely he’s gonna be back for the Giants game but it’s looking like he might be able to make it back by the Eagles game with the Redskins game being unlikely but not impossible.

Pretty sure Ron already said he’s not playing this week,... But he may be back next week which is pretty amazing. Certainly don’t want to rush him though, he aggravated it when he came back last year...

He was listed as out but today would be the day to know because Friday is a walk through.

    • I feel the same way. Bryce hasn't proven himself to be so good that he would clearly lap anyone that we'd bring in the compete for the starting job. I think the team is actually afraid to do that. If Bryce goes down does anyone think Kenny Pickett is solid option to replace him?. We can control him for 2026 and 2027. The problem is 2028. Unless he takes a massive leap forward ability wise, I don't see how Carolina can justify paying B.Y. $50 million a year. So far, Bryce has not shown that he can CONSISTENTLY carry a team. He needs to be carried by a strong offensive line, running game, pass catchers and a respectable defense. If he's lacking any of those things I don't think we can make the playoffs in 2026/2027 unless the NFC South is as bad (or worse) than 2025. Unfortunately, athletes and agents have EGOs! When he has a chance for a 2nd contract his management team will probably insist on a "market deal" and feel insulted if they don't get one. That leaves a couple of options if his play hasn't significantly improved. 1) Let him walk and test the market. 2) Franchise him for the 2028 season if you're still not sure about what to do. 3) Extend him to a team friendly deal that pays him below the "current market" which would allow the team to continue to build a solid team to support him. 4) Over pay him and pretty much ruin any chance of becoming a consistent contender. The last option is the LEAST DESIRABLE ONE. The 2026 season is a pivotal season for Bryce and the Carolina Panthers. The success of the next 5-7 years could ultimately be decided on how well plays the next 2 seasons.  
    • Thank god BigKat can't buy it because I'd be gone immediately 
    • Drake Maye ended up putting almost 300 on them lol. Bryce was stunned from the beginning to end. I know that's an easy comp for the Bryce truthers but no one else put up those puny QB stats against them all season long.
