Carolina Panthers to meet with Cam Newton

The Carolina Panthers are set to meet with Cam Newton per the Charlotte Observer. Owner David Tepper, head coach Matt Rhule, and vice president of football operations Steven Drummond will be there. It is unclear when, exactly, this meeting will take place.

Newton has been a free agent since being released by the New England Patriots during final roster cuts at the start of the 2021 season. The Panthers have been looking for a quarterback since they released Newton in March of 2020. Sam Darnold, their current bet at quarterback, has struggled this season and is currently on injured reserve with a broken shoulder blade that could sideline him for the remainder of the season.
