Via Charlotte Observer:
Quarterback Cam Newton will have surgery on his left foot next week. He suffered the Lisfranc injury in the team’s third preseason game, vs. the Patriots. He played the first two games of the regular season, both losses, but then did not play again.
The Panthers placed him on injured reserve on November 5, which raises questions and intrigue of why it took so long for Newton to elect to go the surgical route.
Recovery from this type of surgery can take anywhere from 6-10 weeks or longer depending on the injury as detailed by Dr. Robert Anderson, the Panthers former assistant team physician and renowned foot specialist, for NFL.com.
This is definitely a season to forget for Cam and the Panthers. Hopefully Cam’s able to make a full recovery and return to the player we all love to hate.
