Panthers mum on Cam Newton status after possible concussion (Video)
The Carolina Panthers are being very quiet as to Cam Newton’s status.
The Panthers quarterback left Sunday’s game against Atlanta after taking a hit to the head on a two point attempt. The quarterback was immediately put into concussion protocol.
When Newton’s status came up after the game, the Panthers were tight-lipped.

It’s not a great sign. It means Newton hasn’t been cleared yet, so there definitely has to be concern for him going forward.
Note that this isn’t the first time Newton has had a brush with head injuries in 2016. The hope is it’s not serious.
