Don't look for Greg Olsen to use acting as bargaining chip in negotiations

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Perhaps Greg Olsen finally has some bargain power with the Carolina Panthers as he seeks an extension that would make him among the NFL’s highest paid tight ends.

Acting.

Olsen recently got acting lessons at the Upright Citizens Brigade in Manhattan with comedian Ben Schwartz of "Parks and Recreation" and "House of Lies" in the latest edition of "Courtyard Camera."

Schwartz got the first tight end in NFL history with three straight 1,000-yard receiving seasons out of the serious role that he plays on Sundays with a little comedic improvisation.
