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

    • Was trying to remember where this came from and then it hit me... buddy of mine that was recruited to play LT for a D1 school (he quickly realized he did not want to do that grind and ended up grinding to be a pharmacist instead). He was telling me how it was insane to have assignments and then these pitbulls in front of you on the DL are literally hopping and rolling over one another to change where they're lined up. Dudes in the trenches are built different... not quite as crazy as the animals that love special teams, those dudes are crazy crazy 😂
    • People hating XL are just as stupid as people hating BY but I do have to give the former credit where credit is due: they didn't spend the entire offseason shitting up threads and derailing them like the latter did. This reminds me so much of hack comedians complaining that they can't tell racist jokes anymore or they'll get cancelled rather than just admitting that they were never as funny as they thought they were. 💀
    • Yea, offenses usually take time to get in sync vs. the organized chaos that is defense 😛
