December 29th, 2009

Rivals: 3 star G
Scout: 3 star OL

Olsen was a force to be reckoned with on the line at Iowa. Before his career ended he was selected as a First Team All-Big Ten and 2nd Team All-American. He was drafted by the Denver Broncos in the 4th Round of the 2009 NFL Draft. He went through his rookie season as the backup Right Guard for the Broncos, managing to get playing time in 3 games. Olsen’s time with the Broncos ended after the 2010 preseason however, as he was cut during the team’s final roster cuts in order to get down to their 53 man roster. He wasn’t available for long though as the Minnesota Vikings put a claim on him and added him to their practice squad for the 2010 season. When the season ended he was again signed by the Vikings where he will report to camp in 2011. He made the team’s 53 man roster but was waived when they brought up ex-Hawkeye Allen Reisner to the team after being on the practice squad. He was then signed by the Indianapolis Colts where he played in and started multiple games for them on the Offensive Line. He was placed on Injured Reserve after their 9th game of the season.
