Tepper has "no idea" whether Cam Newton needs surgery

I thought this was odd also. Rivera does not know if he needs surgery either, so how long is this going to take to find out? Are they going to wait so that he can’t recover by training camp? He’s on Instagram posting videos of intense workouts on the stationary bike and smoking cigars in the Rolls Royce in ATL (this is not a dig he can do what he wants in the offseason), but no reports from anyone on him rehabbing, getting opinions etc. it seems like a normal offseason for him so far. This all seems very hush hush for a surgery he is two years removed from. Cams health decides the fate of the team for the foreseeable future and I hope he gets healthy as soon as possible. It is very frustrating though to have so many people within the organization say they have no idea if he needs surgery.

no they have no idea because cam refuses to get an mri

Why do you continue to say this? It’s absolutely insane to think that a team who is paying him over 100 million wouldn’t make him get an MRI, or just be cool with him refusing to do so. It would possibly allow the panthers to void his contract. With something as important as his throwing shoulder, you think Cam would risk having his career end short because he is scared of getting an MRI?

The team cannot make cam do anything medically. It's his body.

If he is refusing to allow team doctors the chance to correctly diagnose and treat a known injury that effects his ability to play professional football (the game that the panthers are paying over 100 million for his services) then that would allow the team to void the contract. The statement that he refuses to get an MRI is made up. Show me any crumb of proof to that.........I’ll patiently wait.

      The Sanders thing is fake. We could use some safety help no doubt but the FB thing about him asking us to sign him is fake.

      GREAT LIST!!!!! I'd look to add both Davis and Muma at ILB.  One is a WILL ILB and the other is a SAM ILB. Clear upgrades over Bam and Cherelus Mukuamu would be a great addition at safety.  I'd drop Scott for him and start one of Richardson or Ransom I'd give Fadil Diggs a look over DJJ any day of the week.  DJJ is not long for the roster once Nic is 100% Outside of the guys I mentioned and a CB to be named later I really don't see too much shuffling from what we have on our 53.  I think we need to get creative with our PS.  Luckily we are healthy and can take some time to develop players if we retain a few of our own.  I think Kingston and Tarquin will be back at OL for us.  Sam Roberts, Mike Reid, and Bartholomew for sure on defense.  I'd assume Wright will stick on the PS until our rookie kicker proves himself.  Sam Franklin would be a perfect PS signing.  I'd love to pick up Kyle McCord or Trask as a PS QB.  One player to keep an eye on is Jalen Brooks from the Cowboys.  He's from the area and is talented.  Lots of options.  PS players can play 4 games before having to sign on for the rest of the year!!!

      Agreed. In a similar way to Aaron Donald being considered too small for IDL when he was drafted, Lampkin is always viewed as too small but just dominates anyway.
