NEWTON THROWING AGAIN

Quarterback Cam Newton threw passes during the team period for the first time in two weeks as the Carolina Panthers wrapped up training camp in Spartanburg, S.C. Newton participated in red-zone drills but did not throw any long passes Sunday while rehabbing from soreness in his right shoulder that stems from rotator cuff surgery in March. It was unclear if Newton would participate in this week’s scrimmages against the Tennessee Titans or the team’s second preseason game at Tennessee on Aug. 19. Coach Ron Rivera said after the team’s final training camp practice that it was a “good step” for Newton, according to the team’s website.
