Greg Olsen

Greg Olsen (foot) not expected to play Sunday for Carolina

Carolina Panthers tight end Greg Olsen (foot) is not expected to play in Week 13 against the New Orleans Saints, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

What It Means:

There is no new structural issue in Olsen's foot, so this is just the Panthers being cautious after Olsen had to leave Week 12's game with soreness in his surgically repaired foot. Rapoport also noted that playing on turf this week in New Orleans also had something to do with holding out Olsen, but the team does not expect him to be out long. Ed Dickson should fill in more heavily this week at tight end with Olsen likely out.

Our models project Dickson for 3.6 FanDuel points at a cost of $4,900 against the Saints.
