Cam Newton’s leap ... and that landing ... leaves Panthers fans holding their breath

We have all seen Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton leap before — but usually it is in a game that matters with a touchdown at stake.

This time, it was in the first quarter of a preseason game, the ball was around midfield and the outcome of the play wasn’t really going to mean anything — unless Newton got hurt.

And, for a few minutes, it appeared that he did.

You know that feeling you get when you narrowly miss having a car wreck? That was the feeling just about everyone at Bank of America Stadium had Friday night.
