Carolina Panthers QB Cam Newton (shoulder) will be on a pitch count in training camp, but he avoided the Physically Unable to Perform list. ‘It’s going to be structured around our installation. So based on the things that we have as far as going in with our install will dictate what he does,’ head coach Ron Rivera said. ‘All of his reps will be monitored, they’ll be scripted out, and we’ll just follow that pattern as we go through it.’
Footballguys View: That sounds about right. Newton has changed his throwing motion to reduce the amount of torque on his shoulder. We’ll see if these steps help him stay healthy in 2019. Don’t expect to see a lot of Newton in the preseason, so stay tuned to the reports coming out of training camp.
