Injury Report: Olsen added

[Mr. Scot]

Week 2 Monday Injury Report

The Carolina Panthers did not practice on Monday, but they are required to provide an injury report approximation ahead of Thursday Night Football against Tampa Bay.

Three players were listed with "did not participate" designations: TE Greg Olsen (back), DE Bruce Irvin (hamstring) and DB Rashaan Gaulden (groin).

Rookie offensive tackle Greg Little (concussion) was listed as a full participant, but he has not yet cleared the protocol.

Little be cleared or not that isn't matter,they did not make players getting rotation.

I’m sure it’s just bc it’s a short week. Hopefully he’s back tomrw.

[ImaginaryKev]

It makes sense to rest Olsen regardless since it's a short week

[Go DJ that's my DJ]

He's completely washed up.

[ImaginaryKev]

He clearly has something left in the tank, you're a child

Bad timing on this short week.  Starters didn't get any game run during preseason.  Starter totally discombobulated in Game 1.  With Monday being an off-day starters will only have 2-days to prepare.  Not good.

Luckily road teams suck on Thursday night games and Jameis is their QB.

Jameis is the great equalizer that is for sure!  Gawd he sucks.

LOL , and I'm guilty of this too but ffs give the man atleast a chance of an explanation, it's probably the least of anyt concern for the short week.

One of those things where a vet needs a day off and they are like well what hurts and he says I dunno my back maybe?

[Achilles]

Btw...Manhertz did not impress.  Had penalties and missed assignments in blocking.  Olsen was solid, got open, and should have had 2-3 more catches except for throwing errors.

As much as I agree that Olsen is on the verge of retirement, we need at least one competent TE on the field.

Thomas has all of the tools, but he’s proven nothing.

I’m concerned that Olsen being out will cause Cam to make some bad decisions.

Hope it’s just a minor issue.

I don't have the vet hate that some have for Olsen, but seriously, him being out wouldn't break my heart.  Cam definitely tried to force a few throws to Olsen against the Rams.
