Two Carolina Panthers veterans made their long-awaited return in Sunday’s 23-17 loss at Washington.
And coach Ron Rivera didn’t exactly ease them in.
Tight end Greg Olsen played in his first game since re-fracturing his foot in Week 1, and linebacker Thomas Davis played in his own personal “season opener” after a four-game suspension.
Olsen had four catches for 48 yards, including an 18-yard long in the fourth quarter as the Panthers tried to mount a comeback.
