Injury roundup: Greg Olsen (foot) sits out practice

The Carolina Panthers are taking it slow with Greg Olsen.

Coach Ron Rivera said the team held the tight end out of practice again on Thursday out of precaution.

"We wanted to back off and go from there," he said.

Rivera added that he'd be comfortable playing Olsen on Sunday even if the tight end misses practice all week.

Olsen exited Sunday's win over the New York Jets after feeling soreness in his surgically repaired foot. It was his first game back since breaking the foot in Week 2. Follow up tests on injury came back negative this week.

In other Panthers injury news, running back Christian McCaffrey returned to practice on a limited basis after missing Wednesday's session with a shoulder issue.
