The Carolina Panthers still have a chance to win the NFC South despite holding a 5-8-1 record, and their push to snag the division title away from the New Orleans Saints.
Quarterback Cam Newton sat out in the Panthers’ win against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers due to being in a car accident and injuring his back.
The quarterback has been listed as questionable, but the team has cleared him to play against the Cleveland Browns, so he will resume his role as the starter.
