CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- The Carolina Panthers expect quarterback Cam Newton to have his favorite target back for Sunday's game against the Washington Redskins.
Tight end Greg Olsen officially is listed as questionable, but coach Ron Rivera said the three-time Pro Bowler is on target to return only five weeks and three games after re-fracturing the right foot that sidelined him for nine games last season.
"As of right now, yes,'' Rivera said on Friday, indicating Olsen would start if there are no signs of a setback on Saturday or Sunday morning.
