Panthers TE Greg Olsen ruled out after suffering foot injury

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Carolina Panthers Pro Bowl tight end Greg Olsen suffered a foot injury in the first quarter of Sunday's opener against Dallas and was ruled out the rest of the game.

Olsen suffered a broken right foot in Week 2 against Buffalo a year ago and missed eight games after having surgery. He returned for the final five regular-season games and playoff loss to New Orleans.

It is not known for sure if the injury occurred to the same foot.

Olsen, 33 in April signed a two-year extension through the 2020 season.
