Joe Person ‏@josephperson

Also, Luke Kuechly started at weak side linebacker, Jon Beason was in the middle.

Carolina Huddle ‏@CarolinaHuddle

Really liking Tolbert. Low runner like a wider Warrick Dunn

This guy Cam, pretty good. Just made a nice move on a counter run. Big ovation from the crowd.

TV Is Great ‏@tvisgreat

DeAngelo truck stocked Beason to the ground. #Panthers

Carolina Panthers ‏@Panthers

Newton executes an action play and cruises past cheering fans giving him a standing ovation.

Steve Reed ‏@SteveReed_AP

OFFENSE: QB Newton, RB Williams, LT Gross, LG Silatolu, C Kalil, RG Hangartner, RT Bell, TE Olsen and Hatsock, WRs Smith and LaFell.

Joe Person ‏@josephperson

Cornerback Chris Gamble took himself out. Appears to be heat related or cramps.

Some more good tweets from today:

Carolina Panthers ‏@Panthers

Ron Rivera says LB Luke Kuechly's attitude is tremendous & he just wants to come out and play football and do things the way coaches ask.

Carolina Panthers ‏@Panthers

Tolbert says the good thing for him is the Panthers offense is similar to the one Chud ran with Chargers.

Carolina Panthers ‏@Panthers

Tolbert also said that the challenge is learning the personalities of his teammates - who he can & can't joke with.

Carolina Panthers ‏@Panthers

On the topic of Triple Trouble, Tolbert says he has to prove himself on the field before a nickname is created.

Carolina Panthers ‏@Panthers

Tolbert will aim to be a strong leader in the locker room and is already working towards building relationships.

Carolina Panthers ‏@Panthers

Tolbert has known rookie CB Josh Norman and his older brother for a while. Is impressed with the young corner.#coastalconnection

Joe Person ‏@josephperson

#Panthers CB Chris Gamble was at walk-through today after dealing with heat-related issues Sat. night.

Carolina Panthers ‏@Panthers

Charles Johnson is very excited to have key defensive players back. Says goal is to cause turnovers and pressure offense.

Carolina Panthers ‏@Panthers

Charles Johnson says his knee is getting better every day. He's running more and can stop on a dime.

Carolina Panthers ‏@Panthers

Johnson also says DE Greg Hardy has come to camp focused, knowing he has to step up. Says they are developing a good relationship.

Carolina Panthers ‏@Panthers

LaFell says it took some time to get used to the offense last season. As the no.3 WR , he had to know every spot.

Carolina Panthers ‏@Panthers

LaFell thinks the offense will be much better this season. Says it's totally different now that he & Cam have a year together in the books.

Carolina Panthers ‏@Panthers

Beason says that shifting between the 3-4 and 4-3 makes the#Panthers defense tricky.

Carolina Panthers ‏@Panthers

Beason said it was refreshing to have DT Ron Edwards - a nice big body - back in the defense.

Carolina Panthers ‏@Panthers

Beason is very impressed with rookie LB Luke Kuechly - says he has learned quick & shown serious talent. They've spent a lot of time talking

Carolina Panthers ‏@Panthers

Jon Beason: "We're not treating Luke (Kuechly) like a rookie and we don't expect him to play like one either."

Carolina Panthers ‏@Panthers

Beason said Thomas Davis looked "Thomas Davis-like" yesterday. Referenced a nice tackle on deeper coverage during practice.

Carolina Panthers ‏@Panthers

Beason joked that he'd play on offense if team would let him. Also said they probably don't need him there.

Joe Person ‏@josephperson

Panthers LB Jon Beason says LB Thomas Davis had play Sat nite: Beat blocker on blitz, tagged (no contact) QB, ran downfield, made tackle.

Joe Person ‏@josephperson

Beason said whenever Davis does something "freakish" like that, you know he's feeling good despite 3 ACL surgeries.

Carolina Panthers ‏@Panthers

Thomas Davis says the #Panthers have eight or nine linebackers that could star in the league - added that depth and competition helps team.

Carolina Huddle ‏@CarolinaHuddle

McClain looks like he put on 15 pounds of muscle. #Panthers

[CARuthless]

Stoked to hear Norman doin good. AE dropping passes in drills... N whats this about Sherrod makin a pick? Sounds good to me

[OnlyPantherFaninMaine]

Steve Reed ‏@SteveReed_AP

Panthers practicing in shells and shorts tonight, so no live hitting. Big crowd here tonight. Call it the Cam factor.

Carolina Panthers ‏@Panthers

Hoops stars Stephon and Seth Curry are here watching practice.

[OnlyPantherFaninMaine]

Steve Reed ‏@SteveReed_AP

Luke Kuechly makes a pick on Derek Anderson that would have been a pick six. Great acceleration on his break for the ball.

Carolina Huddle ‏@CarolinaHuddle

Kuechly gets his first pick on Anderson. Guy is fast. He was in as mike lb. #Panthers

[OnlyPantherFaninMaine]

Steve Reed ‏@SteveReed_AP

Some guy who wears No. 89 just made a pretty nice catch. I think they should keep that guy.

[OnlyPantherFaninMaine]

Carolina Huddle ‏@CarolinaHuddle

Smith burns Munnerlyn. Munnerlyn gets in some extra shoving. I don't recommend that, Captain. #panthers

TV Is Great ‏@tvisgreat

TD playing with big metal brace on special teams, not hesitating though. #Panthers

Surprises me to hear TD playing Special Teams. That doesn't increase his likelihood of staying off IR. Guess its to be expected for a backup linebacker though.

[OnlyPantherFaninMaine]

Joe Person ‏@josephperson

Olindo Mare hears first boos of the preseason when he hits a 42 yard off upright

[KillerKat]

Nice to hear about Norman on first team. So Anderson is the odd man out if Davis is healthy or was Anderson sitting out for some reason?

AE dropping passes is just more evidence of why he wont be here in a month or less.

[OnlyPantherFaninMaine]

Steve Reed ‏@SteveReed_AP

FB Mike Tolbert with a nice catch in the flat. Expect to see a lot of that from him this season. He'll see plenty of balls thrown his way.

[OnlyPantherFaninMaine]

Carolina Huddle ‏@CarolinaHuddle

Edwards redeems himself with a nice grab over the middle. Crisp route. Needs to be more consistent.

Joe Person ‏@josephperson

Where have you seen this before? Armanti makes a catch in traffic at camp.

[PantherBoy95]

Am I the only one who lol'ed about AE dropping a pass?

[KillerKat]

Carolina Huddle ‏@CarolinaHuddle

Smith burns Munnerlyn. Munnerlyn gets in some extra shoving. I don't recommend that, Captain. #panthers

yea he's probably frustrated because he knows he won't be our starter and I wouldnt be surprised if he's not with us when regular season starts.
