Panthers TE Greg Olsen says he has been cleared from the concussion protocol.

Related players: Ian Thomas

Fantasy Impact:

Olsen hasn't played the last two weeks giving way to Thomas. It's possible the Panthers just shut down Olsen for the final two games or at least run with Thomas as the TE1 to close out the season. It's a situation that will need to be monitored. The Panthers are also considering a QB change, going from Kyle Allen to rookie Will Grier which could also factor into the team's TE fantasy production for the remainder of the season.

Carolina Panthers tight end Greg Olsen was put in the concussion protocol after taking a brutal helmet-to-helmet hit during Sunday’s game against Washington.

Related players: Ian Thomas, Chris Manhertz

Fantasy Impact:

Kyle Allen hit Olsen on a short pass and Olsen had room to run and started charging toward the first-down marker. About a yard or two short of the marker, Olsen took a vicious helmet-to-helmet hit from linebacker Ryan Anderson. Olsen fumbled on the play, and may have been knocked out by the hit. After being evaluated by athletic trainers, Olsen left the game and went into concussion protocol. He was ruled out for the rest of the contest. Anderson was ejected for the illegal hit. Thomas is next up if Olsen can't go in Week 14.
