Random fact. The federal government will test you once more after a positive test just to make sure that the first test isn't a false positive. I hope that isn't the case though and they are just making sure Cam is superman after that surgery and not a false super hero

My guess is because he is trying to heal, a lot of players in his shoes would be trying to heal faster and gain an edge with some type of performance enhancing chemical. 

Good point, but it just feels like they're targeting Cam. Two drug tests in less than a month.

Honestly it seems logical on both sides. Look at that pos Luck for instance. No where near as ready as Cam is. I honestly think it's more so of his actual performance rather than the first notion. No matter what the pundits say Cam is doing something amazing for what he just went through. Not only that but now he is protecting himself better than ever. We are seeing a evolution here the only thing we can hope for is his defense disection only gets better and we may see something special ahead of us. We'll see though. Honestly though he will get accolades none the less and I think the NFL is probably just trying to cover their arse rather than targeting.. God knows they've had enough black eyes lately as it is

I think it's yet another way the league is targeting Cam.  Just like they turned a blind eye to the illegal headhunting he endured...  i think they're still mad he won the 2015 MVP and hoping if they can pop him for PEDs then they can undermine him and his accomplishments further.  He is the face and MVP they never wanted...  they're trying to cater to their largest demographic.

He was hit in the head today but it wasn't called.  Neither commentator mentioned it while they were showing the hit.

Why are some you using the "he didn't want to talk to the media" excuse? He DID talk to the media after the game. It's not like he can choose when to be drug tested to get out of talking to the media. That doesn't even make sense.

Because he said so.

I've seen the clip of him saying that, but he did speak to the media after the game. I guess he was referring to a particular reporter in the clip.

That was my guess as well or that he cooled off

You asked why people would say that. It's a pretty reasonable answer based on his quote

      PFF Best Rookies so far: Two Panthers

      By BEASTfromdaEAST · Posted

      Thank God DM used that #8 pick on a bona fide WR1 and not some bum pass rushing prospect like Stewart or someone else. I believe Tet is legit WR1 material and going forward will be our long term answer at that position since we desperately were in need of one once they traded away DJ Moore.  Tet could possibly end up even being better long term than someone who I respect a ton as a WR in Moore. Evans has been a pleasant surprise and great TE/FB depth piece going forward who could make the most of his opportunities.  Any good offense worth a damn in the NFL has 3 TEs that can do multiple things and being scared by Ian Thomas play for years should makes us all appreciate what Evans is quietly doing as a ROOKIE at one of the hardest positions to learn at the pro level.  Keep cooking DM. This season is not over obviously but seeing some growth out of young talent finally is a breathe of fresh fuggin air for once.

      PFF Best Rookies so far: Two Panthers

      Saw this show up in my new feed. Nice to see a couple of our rookies making it into the top 5 so far, even if it is a pff measure... From https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-top-15-rookies-week-9-2025 ... 4. TE Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers (78.7) Evans struggled in the Panthers’ tight win over the Packers, finishing with a 41.8 PFF overall grade — third worst among tight ends this week. He was not targeted in the game and played only one snap in pass protection. He did log 15 run-blocking snaps, and although he earned a 68.9 PFF run-blocking grade in zone looks (seven snaps), his 39.0 mark in gap schemes (second worst for the week) dragged him down to a 46.6 PFF run-blocking grade overall — sixth worst for the week. Despite seeing zero targets over his past two games, Evans still leads the Carolina tight end group with a 74.3 PFF receiving grade. He has caught all nine of his targets for 90 yards, six first downs and two touchdowns. Evans also leads the Panthers’ tight end group in PFF run-blocking grade (72.2). He has recorded a 20.5% positive play rate across 175 snaps.  5. WR Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers (78.6) McMillan had a better day against the Packers, recording four catches for 46 yards. Most of that production came in the first quarter via two 16-yard catches — one of which he snatched from Carrington Valentine’s hands, who was in perfect position to break up the pass. McMillan accounted for three first downs on the day, although Green Bay was able to limit his impact after the catch, holding him to 0.8 yards after the catch per reception. McMillan now has 41 catches for 558 yards — a top-15 mark. He is also tied for second with 19 explosive gains of 15-plus yards. Three of McMillan’s catches against the Packers came between the numbers, bringing him to 22 for 318 yards and 19 first downs (tied for second most) this season. He owns a 26.1% threat rate and a 76.6 PFF receiving grade between the numbers. He also ranks in the top 10 in explosive gains (10) and yards after the catch per reception (5.5) within that area of the field.

      At least we don't need to hear overreacting about towels ...
