Jimmy Clausen News

Tom Sorensen has been a columnist at The Observer for 20 years and has been at the paper for 25, writing about nearly every sport in the Carolinas.

CHARLOTTE, NC Week 2 for the Carolina Panthers' organized team activities just wrapped up.

Last night Steve Reed reported on the Carolina Panthers' receiver situation, offering some much needed insight to how Ron Rivera views the position.

Quarterback Cam Newton and head coach Ron Rivera improved the Panthers squad dramatically in their first season in Carolina.

Offensive coordinator Rob Chudzinski has spent the first two weeks of organized team activities installing tweaks and twists to further diversify the NFL's seventh-ranked offense in 2011.

Of course, every team wants to avoid the injury bug; but teams that have been well-stocked with depth are always more prepared to survive devastating injuries than "top-heavy" teams.

I walk to Carolina Panthers practice Thursday, stuck in a logjam behind DeAngelo Williams and Jonathan Stewart, and from the back there's a voice, talking and singing, loud and low.

Hello all! Today I am going to take a look at the 2012 quarterback roster. I know, Cam Newton isn't losing his job anytime soon.

At the beginning of last season very few suspected that Cam Newton and the Panther's offense would have the kind of production that they did.

David Gettis is one of the most intriguing wide receivers on the Panthers roster.

Quarterback Jarrett Brown spent the past three days doing what he loves, dropping back and firing passes to wide receivers at the Carolina Panthers' rookie minicamp.

Unlike last season when we all wondered if Jimmy Clausen would give up his #2 jersey number to Cam Newton we have no such conflicts this year.

The recent news of Jacoby Jones visiting the Carolina Panthers has brewed up a lot talk and confusion among Panther fans.

Let's get this out of the way right now: I think Cam Newton is an absolutely amazing talent, put forth the best rookie season we've ever seen, and is the catalyst for the Panthers' successes moving forward.
