Olsen last played in Week 3, when he fractured a bone in his foot. Sunday’s game against the New York Jets would be the first game he’s eligible to return for, having been placed on injured reserve.
Everything seems to be on schedule for Olsen, as it was a month ago. He’s made a quick recovery, and fears that he might miss the entire season look to have been without merit.
