Cam Newton injury puts personal and Carolina Panthers future in jeopardy

Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton hasn’t missed too many games during his tenure as the franchise quarterback over the past eight-plus seasons. He’s a former No. 1 overall pick, has been to a Super Bowl, holds countless NFL and team records, in addition to winning the league MVP Award following an impressive 2015 season.

Despite the accolades, a current eight game losing streak (as the starter) and recent shoulder issues culminated with a foot injury suffered during the preseason. In his first live action since Week 15 last year, Newton took his first snaps against the New England Patriots during preseason game number three.
