I definitely appreciate the transparency from Cam. Definitely always has wore his heart on his sleeve and I think this situation has him feeling very insecure.

[Hoenheim]

This is pretty much what all of us have been calling for , for him to get back to 100% and he seems to realize it too. But this is a pretty good detailed summary about how he feels. 

[Bartin]

So he admits to hiding his injuries.

I will say I like his attitude and that he realizes he was hurting both himself and the team.

I get a lot of people here don't like Rivera.

But can we please stop with the idea Ron Rivera forced Cam to play? It's very clear that Cam doesn't want to play unless hs is literally incapable of playing, and now he's said it's basically to the point that he hid injuries. That's on Cam, and that attitude of not wanting to let the team down is big in football. I love Cam and I hope he rests and gets healthy, and this is a big thing for him to do.

Any player is going to want to play. It's up to Ron to sit the player when they clearly aren't healthy.

I believe Cam will come back with a vengeance when he is ready!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I appreciate the transparency...but I hate that he didn’t learn a lesson from last season and continued to trot himself onto the field for the first two games knowing that him being under Center was hurting this team.  I hope he heals and can get back to being the old Cam.  But I also hope that Allen plays so well that Rivera is forced to make an uncomfortable decision when that time comes.

Sure that’s valid. Ron was way too late sitting him last year but it’s also hard when someone you’ve been close to for 8+ years is lying to you and saying that everything is fine because you want to believe him.

Man, I'm gonna miss this guy when he's really gone. We're really lucky to get to have Cam as our QB and to have seen his career unfold. He's insanely talented and he's a character and he's a real dude-- plenty of teams can find talented guys who can be robots off the field. I always appreciate seeing someone show emotion and go off script to be real instead and connect with the fans.

From the pouting and being pissed in the early years to dancing and dabbing on everyone to the sobering reality checks of his injuries. It's been a special trip to see.

Yeah some people here thought Ron was lying about Cam not being injured. Turns out Cam was trying to hide it.

Cam’s a warrior and will go through hell for this team. Too many fans take that for granted
