Via Panthers Wire:

“Multiple sources confirmed Newton is dealing with a Lisfranc injury, in which the ligaments of the mid-foot rupture, causing instability with the joints. Some Lisfranc injuries involve trauma to the small bones in the foot, although the Panthers’ initial wording that Newton had sustained a mid-foot sprain would suggest his is ligament-related.”

You have to love team’s trying to hide the actual injury.  It was obvious to everyone when Cam wasn’t running during the first two games that his injury wasn’t fully healed and it was worse than what was being reported.
