Another talented player is now leaving them. I wonder where Greg will end up going next. Maybe another team? And I have seen him on TV and it seems like that could be something he might be interested in as well.
He's a good player. I would love to see him here for at least a year if he has anything much left in the tank. But he will have a number of teams interested for sure. Injuries tripped him up a bit over the last three years.
But he could make for one hell of a compliment in most schemes even at the age of 34. Pair him up in San Francisco with Kittle? Or Kelce in Kansas City? Could be a good fit.

Ian said that Greg is still interested in playing for the "right opportunity." I am interested in seeing where he lands, I have always liked him. Maybe he will find his way to a competitive/playoff type team.

Usually when the “right opportunity” presents itself, it’s the Patriots. That or the latest flavor of the year.
He'll go to the cowboys and witten can retire and finally kill what little viewership is left for MNF.

I think most of the time, you're correct. But I think we are finally seeing a changing of the guard here. KC, Baltimore, SF or maybe even Pittsburgh may be better options for Olsen.
Patriots would be ideal for him if they keep Brady.
good te,but unforttanttly he has become a injury prone player last few years now.
I am extremely disappointed to not see the Jaguars among the teams negotiating with Greg Olsen. He's a perfect veteran stopgap who can give Minshew the outlet he badly needed last season while the team sees what it's got in Oliver and any other draftees.

Yeah I agree. We have a huge hole at TE and he would fit as a cheap vet stop gap. Need to pursue.
