Cam Newton's deep ball 'biggest surprise' for Carolina
Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton is surprising with deep throws at training camp, writes Brendan Marks of The Charlotte Observer.
Marks describes the "return of Cam Newton's deep ball" as the "biggest surprise" so far at Panthers' camp, noting that the 30-year-old "could barely toss a ball 10 yards without visible pain" as recently as last December. Newton appears healthy and ready to produce as he comes off his second shoulder surgery in three years.
numberFire's models project Newton for 3,857.8 passing yards with 24.13 touchdowns and 12.2 interceptions this season, as well as 555.0 yards and 5.71 touchdowns on the ground. He's the QB5 in our preseason fantasy rankings.
