According to Adam Schefter, former Panthers TE Greg Olsen is also set to visit with the Seahawks soon.
Olsen was officially released by Carolina on Monday and has upcoming visits with the Bills and Redskins. He’s weighing playing for another season with starting a career in the broadcast booth.
It’s worth mentioning that signing Olsen to a contract will not factor into a team’s 2021 compensatory picks, given that he was released.
Olsen, 34, is a former first-round pick of the Bears back in 2007. He played four years for Chicago before he was traded to the Panthers in 2011.
Olsen was in the final year of a four-year, $27.75 million contract when he agreed to a two-year, $17 million extension back in 2018. He was set to make a base salary of $6.6 million for the 2020 season.
In 2019, Olsen appeared in 14 games for the Panthers and caught 52 passes for 597 yards receiving and two touchdowns.
