Greg Olsen had surgery on foot, expected to make full recovery
Greg Olsen suffered yet another foot injury earlier this month, and the Carolina Panthers tight end is hoping the recent surgery he underwent will finally remedy the issue.
According to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, Olsen went under the knife last week and is expected to make a full recovery.

Olsen will turn 34 this offseason, so it would not be a surprise if he contemplates retirement. He has been able to compete at a high level when healthy, but recurring foot injuries have limited him to just 16 games over the past two seasons. He finished the 2018 season with 27 catches for 291 yards and four touchdowns.
