Greg Olsen Makes NFL History

The Carolina Panthers very own Mr.Reliable has done it again.

With a 17 yard catch in the  second quarter, Greg Olsen became the first tight end in NFL history with three consecutive 1,000 yard receiving seasons. 

It should come as no surprise as Olsen has been Cam's favorite target since entering the NFL and Greg has been just as reliable.

With one game left in the season, Olsen could also hit a career high in receiving yards for the third consecutive season as well. He followed his first 1,000 yard campaign (1,008) in 2014 with a 1,104 yard performance last year helping the Panthers to a 15-1 season and Super Bowl 50 appearance.

Olsen also recorded his fourth straight season with 70 or more receptions.
