Panthers say QB Cam Newton underwent treatment for foot soreness

Ron Rivera said Cam Newton, who suffered a left midfoot sprain in the third preseason game at New England, reported foot soreness after the loss to Tampa Bay on Thursday Night Football.

Per Rivera, Newton underwent treatment over the weekend, and the coach and quarterback met again Tuesday morning to reassess.

“He was low about it, he really was. He wants to compete so badly,” Rivera said.

“It’s tough. He wants to be out there for his teammates. I appreciate our conversation. He was very honest and he was up-front about it. He said he’s going to do everything he can. We’ll see what happens.”

Related players: Kyle Allen

Fantasy Impact: 

If Newton can’t go, Rivera confirmed that Allen will step in as the starting quarterback. Allen appeared in the final two regular season games last season, leading Carolina to a 33-14 road win over the Saints as the starter in the finale. Rivera said Allen is "more than ready." Some who follow the team feel a healthy Allen is a better option right now than a banged up Newton. Carolina plays at Arizona in Week 3.

Panthers Beat: RB Christian McCaffrey misses QB Cam Newton as run threat

The Bucs stacked the defense to stop Christian McCaffrey all night in the 20-14 victory on Thursday that dropped the Panthers to 0-2 for the first time since 2013. They showed no respect for Cam Newton as a runner, loading the box to shut down McCaffrey and forcing the quarterback to get rid of the ball quickly when a pass was called.

Newton failed, missing 15 wide-open targets, according to ESPN Stats & Information tracking.

McCaffrey, a week after having 128 yards rushing and 81 receiving, didn’t stand a chance. He had 56 total yards, spending much of the night drawn into blocking blitzing defenders.

Fantasy Impact: 

HC Ron Rivera said the Bucs did a "green dog," making it look like a blitz was coming and causing McCaffrey to step up and block. Now the Panthers must adjust as they face two road games at Arizona and Houston. The story said it also means Newton must be more effective completing short and intermediate passes. The piece added Newton missed open receivers, but especially when under pressure. Expect the Cards and Texans to try and do the same over the next two weeks.

Panthers QB Cam Newton getting questioned about lack of deep passes

There is some question about why Cam Newton still isn't throwing deep even though he's supposedly healed and under no restrictions from the coaching staff following arthroscopic surgery in January.

Newton attempted 38 passes against the Rams, but most were check-downs or passes underneath the coverage. His only attempt beyond 20 yards was a ball that sailed 25 yards through the air and over the head of wide receiver Curtis Samuel.

Fantasy Impact: 

Newton has insisted his shoulder is fine entering Thursday night's game against Tampa Bay and that it didn't bother him in Week 1. The story quoted Tampa coach Bruce Arians, who said he believes Newton fine and capable of throwing a deep ball. The story mentioned the lack of deep passes is reminiscent of when Newton struggled through a lingering shoulder injury that limited his arm strength.
