Cam Newton Back in QB1 Conversation

NFL Week 11 - It's easy to laugh off Cam Newton's declaration that he's back when his new-old Panthers team needed its Sunday win over the Cardinals to return to a .500 record. But at least in fantasy, you shouldn't ignore the possibility. Even when he underwhelmed as a passer at times in recent seasons, Newton never fared too poorly in fantasy. And while myriad shoulder and foot injuries may have lowered Newton's ceiling from his early-career top-eight fantasy standard, Newton threw the ball better in the preseason and could recapture QB1 value on the shoulders of his goal-line rushing.
