Ron Rivera: Kyle Allen will start this week. Cam Newton will continue his rehab program. I have nothing further to add.
Fantasy Impact:
We reported before the Panthers bye week that Newton was about midway through his rehab according to the team, which came as a bit of a surprise. More recent reports suggest he's getting other opinions including surgery, which would end his season. It seems like Newton isn't close to a return and Allen will be the starter for the foreseeable future.
