Greg Olsen missed his third consecutive practice on Thursday and underwent an MRI that revealed no structural damage to his back. (Charlotte Observer)

Fantasy Impact:

The Panthers don't seem to be all that concerned with Olsen's back at this point with head coach Ron Rivera calling the injury "a big spasm". For prospective fantasy owners this is worth monitoring as Olsen has been one of the most productive tight ends in fantasy over the past few seasons. Olsen had 77 catches in 123 targets for 1,104 yards and seven touchdowns in 2015.
