Cam Newton may be ready in June

Carolina Panthers coach Ron Rivera wouldn't rule out Cam Newton participating in a June 16-19 minicamp, which would put the fourth-year quarterback more than a month ahead of schedule in his recovery from ankle surgery.

 

"I really don't know what the schedule is, especially with him,'' Rivera said following Wednesday's second day of on-the-field workouts. "But I wouldn't put it past him. I really wouldn't.''

 

Newton underwent surgery to tighten the ligaments in his left ankle on March 19. Team officials estimated at the time the recovery would take four months, which would have the two-time Pro Bowler ready in time for the start of training camp.

No, no, no, no....

Doesn't Ron watch ESPN?

Cam is gonna be in a wheelchair until mid-August. He won't get any practice with the new WRs and our team is doomed.

Sorry, must have missed those 20 seconds on ESPN that ran at 0153 talking about Carolina

After practice today Cam was doing his patented dribble the football like a basketball moves. It got away from him and he made a quick move to recover it. He immediately cringed in pain.

 

I doubt he is there in June. Training camp.... maybe.

I wonder if his surgery was one that has a risk of injury from pushing it too much, or if the pain is just something he'll have to deal with for a while.

      Gronk is the best TE of all time, but he also played with Brady. Clarke was great, but had Peyton and in an era TE's didn't make crazy money. Kittle is great, but the two times he's made the SB, he was still on his rookie contract for one, and the other the 49ers had Purdy on a cheap rookie deal which help them build the rest of the roster. So again, it's not about not wanting an elite TE, of course it would be nice.  But realistically, in today's NFL, unless that elite TE with a top end TE salary is on a team with a GOAT level QB and/or other serious cap savings (i.e. key players on rookie deals), then I think it's not a good use of cap space.

      This place was the poo pre tepper with tons of hilarious posters like phillyB. Joined in the 2000s during the 07 season and have been here bitching about this team since. but yeah its sadly been dying a slow death, every time I come to this site I am surprised its still up. I think the 2015 season was the absolute peak, the Panthers and this board especially just haven't "felt" the same since then. Igo should really sell the board since he clearly doesn't care anymore. Also, Reddit blows and the Bryce defenders on there need Jesus.

      Guessing the price is too rich here given the injury history.  2024 was brutal and production dropped off in 2025 with a few more injuries (albeit rough qb play).    Don’t really understand the narrative that Young can’t benefit from talented upgrades on offense. Especially here with respect to a tight end. Any QB will benefit from talented receivers that threaten the top of coverage and tight ends with skills to stress zone.    The age and injury history, coupled with what he’s likely asking, just probably means we can better spend that money elsewhere.
