The Panthers were back on the field today in preparation for Sunday’s game against the Browns. Cam Newton was limited in practice again today, but he doesn’t seem to be concerned about missing Sunday’s game in Cleveland. The Panthers have limited him in mid-week practices all season long and have gone as far as calling it ‘the new normal’, so unless something drastic changes between now and Sunday you can pretty much guarantee that Cam will be on the field for Carolina.
No throws for Cam Newton during today’s open portion of practice. There was dancing, however. Lots of dancing.

The only other player to be limited today was kicker Graham Gano. There’s no word on whether or not it’s serious enough to be concerned, but the Panthers haven’t said anything to make us worry just yet.
Kicker Graham Gano (left knee) was limited today.

It could be nothing, but it could also be a huge deal. We’ll know more as the week progresses. Hopefully it’s nothing...
