Panthers' Greg Olsen re-fractured right foot, to be evaluated monthly

Carolina Panthers tight end Greg Olsen, who injured his foot in the first quarter of Sunday's opening 16-8 win over the Dallas Cowboys, has re-fractured his right foot.

The team said Tuesday that there are no plans for surgery for Olsen at this time, and he will be evaluated on a monthly basis.

Olsen first broke his foot in Week 2 against the Buffalo Bills a year ago. He had surgery for that fracture, and missed nine games.

On Sunday, Olsen returned to the sideline in the second half, on crutches and in a walking boot.
