Ron Rivera said again Derek Anderson will start. Talked to him about it last night. #Panthers

 

Rivera said #panthers expect to see Cam Newton tomorrow at Stadium. Said it's a week to week thing.

 

"(Cam) feels like he's letting everybody down," Rivera said of Newton's mood

 

Ron Rivera said Cam Newton was "down'' when he met with him at hospital last night. #Panthers

 

Joe Person @josephperson

Ron Rivera says Cam, more than anything, was disappointed not to be here for his teammates.

 

Rivera says "we're back to square one" with Cam in terms of dealing with pain, like the rib injury from preseason.

 

Rivera: medical staff putting together a plan for Cam's return - will defer to Doctors. Injury is more about pain tolerance

Rivera : this will be a week by week thing - just like the rib injury. Don't want to expose him to further harm

 

Rivera said team will see how Cam Newton is next week. "We don't want to expose him to any further harm." Joe Webb is the backup.

 

Rivera added on injury "It doesn't look good. I'm not going to sugar coat that.'' Doesn't want to make it sound like it's simply one week.

Much respect for Rivera's approach today. He sounds like a man concerned about nothing -- not wins nor playoffs nor job -- but Cam's health.

 

“He has that smile, a way of flashing it to show things will be ok. So when he did flash that smile, I knew everything would be ok.” - RR

      Official Panthers roster cuts thread

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Why don't we just say they can shove the late round draft picks up their ass? If they want a player they will be starting at WR in Week 1, I want a MLB in return that we can start Week 1. Starter for a Starter Not Starter for a draft pick we'll be debating whether or not they should make the final 53 man roster in 2026.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Why?   No. This isn't a situation of a player we want to trade because we have no use for them.  He's our starting slot WR, our leader of the young WR room, Bryce's safety option the last 2 years who he has good chemistry with. If the Vikings didn't run into WR trouble, we'd never have been even considering trading him, so why in the world should we give him up for fair market value in a vacuum for Thielen and disregard what losing him off our roster will do for us this year? A 5th round pick in 2026 is a negligible draft pick, especially with this season being so make or break for Bryce and Canales.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      The Vikings acquiring all these late round picks has me feeling like we're about to see another CMC situation play out here. Trade a player we really like for the equivalent of what we want for them on the draft pick chart, but because of a bunch of late round picks instead of the one pick value we actually want. Which will do the same thing in the end, nothing, because 6th and 7th round picks rarely work out to begin with, or we're just going to use them to move up 10 picks in the 3rd or 4th round to take another DJ Johnson
