Greg Olsen (back) missed Wednesday’s practice: Fantasy Implications
Carolina Panthers TE Greg Olsen did not practice on Wednesday. We breakdown the fantasy implications.
Bob Donnan-US PRESSWIRE
Olsen hasn't missed significant time this season and has grown into this offense in 2012. The Panthers will need him and likely have him available versus the Atlanta Falcons in Week 14.
Fantasy Analysis: On Sunday, the Panthers will have a difficult divisional battle on their hands with the Falcons. And with Brandon LaFell (turf toe) recently sidelined, Olsen could get even more looks.
Olsen will be a top-tier fantasy tight end in this year’s playoffs. His role in the offense has only added to his value, so be sure to have him in your lineup this weekend.
