Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton loves riding around on scooters and hoverboards. He’s certainly more of an active guy, and loves being a part of the Charlotte community.

Head coach Gary Kubiak is getting the week off after being diagnosed with what the Denver Broncos described as a “complex migraine condition that caused extreme fatigue and body weakness.” He will not coach on Thursday against the San Diego Chargers. .

Bosa’s wecome-to-the-NFL moment: Not bad, but merely […]
