If you’re hoping for another reunion between Cam Newton and the Carolina Panthers, it’s still very much a possibility. But that reunion, per Jonathan M. Alexander of The Charlotte Observer, could come with a few drawbacks for the former Most Valuable Player.
On Monday, Alexander reported that the Panthers are still open to bringing back their all-time leading passer. That, however, could be a bit of an uphill climb for Cam—as Newton would have to sign on for a “smaller salary” from 2021 and would not be considered the starter heading into training camp.
Two weeks ago, general manager Scott Fitterer joined PFT PM and told host Mike Florio that Newton and the team have remained in communication about a possible return.
