Olsen Debating Retiring

I love Greg Olsen, but I honestly hope he retires. Big men rarely recover from recurring foot injuries. That's just a ton of stress on some very small bones and connecting tissues. Freeing up that cap space could be key for us and Ian Thomas looks ready to go. Olsen is awesome on the mic and I think he'll make a great commentator/analyst. It may be time for him to start looking at life after football. He's certainly not the only current player looking to take this route and that door may not stay open permenantly.

It's been fun, Greg. You're a Panthers legend. Go become a legend on the mic now.

It sounds as if Fox is the only one really making a play for him. If he retires he loses his 3.4 million plus has to pay back some of his 11 million in signing bonus. I doubt they pay even 3.4 million for a season and honestly it will be there when he retires in 2 years. It isn't a once in a lifetime opportunity that goes away

    • Adios and good night, done talking about what we should have done but it’s weird when anti-tankers try and get back on the high horse.
    • Yes. Fitt said he liked Young for two years. He hitched his wagon to him. Reich and Young were going 2-15, nothing I said we should get would have saved him. A new coach plus Tepper (and Morgan) would have wanted the draft assets we kept or got to be used by a better GM/Coach. SMH, you need to read my post and your own again. You said: “So we should have sold off all of our talent and what?” I was being sarcastic that they still were in the roster because the guys you are saying we shouldn’t have sold off got sold off anyway but instead of getting full value, we got scraps. We had an opportunity to sell at the highs and instead we let the stocks lose 50-75% and then sold them. Because we didn’t tank in 2022 when the Rams basically handed the idea to us, we either set the team back several years to where we won’t do anything and will be back at the drawing board or kept enough talent off the team that we may make the playoffs but we still won’t be a top team like an extra handful of 1st rounders could have gotten us.
    • Holy poo... we have allowed the fewest goals in the playoffs, total. Including the teams that lost in the first round... lmao
