Panthers Remain In Communication With Cam Newton
3 years agoThe Carolina Panthers continue to talk about the potential of re-signing quarterback Cam Newton. "I think we're still having thoughts," general manager Scott Fitterer said. "We have to see how this works out here throughout the spring. I just happened to be up at the [Kentucky] Derby last weekend and Cam was up there. We're texting a little bit. The lines of communication are open." Carolina turned to Newton last year when Sam Darnold was injured, and the former MVP was mediocre in eight games (five starts), throwing for 684 yards, four touchdowns and five interceptions on 126 attempts. He ran 47 times for 230 yards and five scores. A lot will depend on what the team sees in Darnold and rookie Matt Corral, and whether they pursue a trade for Cleveland Browns QB Baker Mayfield.
