As Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton continues to rehab a surgically-repaired Lisfranc injury on his left foot, a source with knowledge of the situation told The Athletic on Monday that the team believes he is likely to pass his physical/be cleared for some football activity in March.

Nerdy Football Analysis: Lisfranc injuries are tricky to recover from which is why the Panthers are giving very little information about Newton’s recovery and timeline. Even if he’s cleared to do some work in March he’ll likely be limited during OTAs in April and May. There is the chance that the Panthers could cut Newton once the league year begins in March. The team would save $19 million against the cap.
