You're all I ever wanted, you're all I ever needed.

Thank you for sharing.

It’s definitely not a slam dunk that he’s back. There are legitimate concerns, and it’s important to account for those.

Hopefully, he can make his way back into the starting lineup for Carolina with a clean bill of health. I think most folks would like to see that.

Do you think we can get that guy back? The guy in most (or all) of those highlights was a bigger Cam than the guy who barely looked bigger than that teenager in the thread from earlier today. It's his choice, but I don't know if we'll ever see that Cam again.

I saw that picture earlier, and he did look a little bit trimmer. Not sure if that’s just an illusion, or what. He’ll have to modify his game, for sure. That said: a good bit of those plays in the highlight reel were from 2018. You can still use him creatively, IMO.

The shoulder is likely a long-term concern, if I had to take a guess. Short term, I think he’s got some years left. Wear and tear? Thing is, most of his damage came from within the pocket or chasing down an interception. Unless guys go head hunting, which is not unprecedented, Cam is usually pretty safe in the open field.

It’s going to be fascinating couple of months.

He can gain weight and build muscle back.

Cam will have plenty of time to get into game shape by the time TC rolls around

Dude he looks so much leaner and in shape too from recent pics, I bet hes as fast as hes ever been. No body fat but alot if muscle mass.

How will that be possible if he's still in a boot?
