Panthers' Greg Olsen refractured right foot, to be evaluated monthly

Carolina Panthers tight end Greg Olsen refractured his right foot in the first quarter of Sunday's 16-8 season-opening win over the Dallas Cowboys.

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 a year ago in Week 2 against the Buffalo Bills. 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.
