The Facts: Following up on a previous item. ... HC Ron Rivera, speaking live at the NFL Combine in Indy, says everything has been "positive' in Newton's rehab from shoulder surgery.
Diehards Line:
Rivera also said the Panthers like who they have at their depth position at quarterback right now and if a quarterback is added to the roster it likely will be through the draft. Kyle Allen is the only other QB under contract, but Rivera mentioned Taylor Heinicke several times so look for him to be re-signed. As for Newton? While we don't expect to see him throwing much before training camp, his progress is something we'll follow closely.
