Panthers GM: Team “cautiously optimistic” Newton will return Week 1

Carolina Panthers general manager Marty Hurney spoke Friday about the foot injury suffered by quarterback Cam Newton, saying "Cam Newton has a mid-foot sprain in his left foot, and we are cautiously optimistic he will be ready for week one.", per Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic.

Fantasy Impact:

Newton exited Thursday’s game against the Patriots after three series. He was tackled by Patriots DT Danny Shelton which caused the injury. He later was spotted wearing a walking boot, but that was likely just for precautionary reasons. Former NFL team doctor David Chao shares some insight into the injury saying “Cam Newton in a walking boot. No crutches. By video, I did not see a major left foot injury. Often boot is precautionary for swelling overnight, especially when there is a flight home. No reason to panic with 2.5 weeks to opening game.” Newton should be considered questionable at best for Week 1 against the Rams but fortunately the injury does not seem serious.

Texans WR Keke Coutee still out with ankle sprain

yesterday · 3:50 PM EDT

Keke Coutee remains sidelined with a sprained ankle.

Fantasy Impact:

Beat writer Aaron Wilson didn't give us much information other than Keke Coutee is still out, but we're getting to a point where we won't see him in the preseason and his availability for Week 1 is coming into doubt. When healthy, Coutee is a useful fantasy player and likely startable in most PPR leagues, so hopefully, he gets back to practice sooner than later.

Cardinals Beat: WR KeeSean Johnson impresses in camp

ESPN

yesterday · 2:45 PM EDT

KeeSean Johnson may have had the best training camp of anyone on the Cardinals' roster, veteran or rookie alike. He's displayed a sharp route tree and great hands, both of which have made him an early favorite with the coaching staff."

Fantasy Impact:

The Arizona Cardinals just signed Michael Crabtree for some veteran receiver depth, but KeeSean Johnson doesn't appear to be a reason Arizona was seeking out receivers. Johnson looks to be firmly in the mix for work starting Week 1, especially in an offense that will use four-receiver formations often.
