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.

      Grading the Panthers' 2026 Draft Class

      By frankw · Posted

      I like what Freeling brings to the table all around. If he is willing to put in the work he has an opportunity to be one of the better Tackles in the league down the line. Hunter Brazzell and Hecht are all premium additions but development from our staff are the key to unlocking them. Hopefully Lee and Wheatley will provide much needed additional depth to our secondary. Beyond that it's important not to get too caught up in draft grades. Many drafts over the years that turned out to be really good were not fawned over with praise. While some that were ended up being historical duds. Panthers fans ought to know this as well as anyone. In conclusion...

      Grading the Panthers' 2026 Draft Class

      Maybe a bit of a homer take but I can't give us a grade lower than A.   Freeling was arguably the best LT prospect in the draft.  His athletic ability is off the chart and at 6'7" that can move.  It was a no brainer pick.   Hunter's key word is Violence. Putting him next to Brown should scare an offensive coordinator. These two give Scourton and Phillips plenty of chances to get one on one opportunities. Brazzell, another tall receiver with sprinter speed.  Our WR room is filled with tall talented WR.  Brazzell is going to give us a WR that can take to roof off the defense.  Basically Jimmy Horn with size. W. Lee III has a nickname of the Blanket. (heard this on the Beleav podcast with J. Stewart)  What a great name.  A great value in the 5th round. Hecht A strong, fast and extremely smart center. Many had him listed as the best center in the draft.  He's most likely a starter sooner than later. Wheatley A good safety in round 5.  Someone who could see playing time.   Kuwatch  I love this pick.  At minimum he will be a key piece on special teams and with some good coaching he'll see some packages where he'll play.  His down piece is he doesn't stay up in the running game.  Good coaching will fix this.  He reminds me a bit of A.J. Klein.   All these picks were great value.  I believe everyone of them were graded higher than the pick we took them.   Dan Morgan is IMO doing a great job turning this team into a good team with great depth.
