Good info from Joe P. 

 

“There’s no reason to (panic). We’re just listening to what the doctors and trainers say. They’re optimistic, as long as we don’t have a setback, which we don’t anticipate,” Rivera said after Sunday’s final practice in Spartanburg."

 

Sounds like we won't see Cam at all this preseason, which makes me worry even more.

I've been thinking about this.  

A great deal of people have focused on Cam's footwork breaking down and causing bad throws. 
This off season and most of training camp all Cam is working on is footwork and mechanics. 

This may end up being a blessing in disguise. 

Plus he is throwing, which means that his arm is structurally sound, and it sounds more like making sure his range of movement isn't getting restricted by soreness and developing bad throwing habits to protect his shoulder.   Even if he takes some off of his passes Cam has the arm strength to spare. 

Still feeling pretty good about Cam.  Not as good as if there were no restrictions, but comfortable that there isn't somthing crazy going on behind the scenes.

I think Cam just tried to do too much in those first couple of practices and they had to reign him in a little bit. He had no business trying to throw 30-40yd passes right off the bat. In fact, RR has pretty much said just that. The fact that they only let him throw in the red zone yesterday pretty much confirms that because it forces him to keep his throws short.

Man, if he somehow fixes his damn footwork and mechanics in one offseason, that'll be incredible.

Where was the concern in week 17 last year?  All time dumb.  

Saints in week 3.  DO NOT RISK ANYTHING MORE long term if he's not 100% before then.

And watch us lose the first 2 games when DA starts throwing picks in the endzone

      The problem with these summary stats and rankings is that they flatten out progression and assume an even performance throughout the year. His first 3 or 4 games of the season don't really tell you anything about his current level of capacity but more about where he started and what his floor was last year. Given his last several games were against playoff teams, that gives you an idea of his current ability coming into the season. But it will serve more as a floor than a ceiling given the upgrade in talent on offense. And a better defense should give us more stops which results in shorter fields and more opportunities. And going into his third year there is no reason to suspect he will regress. His success wasn't  based on being superhuman but being smart and taking what was the defense was giving him. Distributing to the other guys not trying to do it on his own. He was great at the end when pressured and consistently moved the ball. That makes him a great game manager which is what we need. Something that is easier to do and relies on everyone else rather than having to be a top physical specimen or do it on his own. No one can predict the future but to say we haven't improved much is crazy given just having the Browns anchoring the defensive line will shut down the run and make sure QBs won't be stepping up in the pocket.  Assuming Evero got the message to can the prevent defense and bend until you break philosophy.

      If the Canes don't bring back Tyson Jost or Jack Roslovic, is Tanner Jeannot an option? https://www.prohockeyrumors.com/2025/06/senators-expected-to-show-interest-in-tanner-jeannot.html
