Carolina Panthers starting quarterback Cam Newton has been listed as questionable on the National Football League injury report. Newton did have a full practice session on Saturday after his body of work was limited on Thursday and Friday due to an injury to his right shoulder. Panthers head coach Ron Rivera did make a statement on Saturday that Newton will be his starting quarterback when the Washington Redskins (7-5-1) who are in the playoff hunt will be hosting the defending National Football Conference Champions at FedEx Field in Landover Maryland on Monday Night Football. The Panthers (5-8) can only hope to win their remaining three football games to have a breakeven season since their chances to make the playoffs will be done by the time their game against the Redskins is played. The interest of this football game will be that Washington Redskins cornerback Josh Norman would love to beat his former team that allowed him to enter the free agent market at the end of the 2015 football season. On the other side of the coin, the Panthers would love to play the role of spoiler to the remaining teams on their schedule who may or may not be in the playoff hunt.
