Newton says Panthers RBs need to be more involved

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) Quarterback Cam Newton said if the Carolina Panthers are to be successful this season their running backs need to be more involved in the offense.

Newton said that means a concerted effort to get the running backs involved early in games.

The Panthers once invested nearly $80 million in DeAngelo Williams and Jonathan Stewart -- both contracts have since been restructured -- and also brought in free agent Mike Tolbert last season. Yet, it was Newton who led the team in rushing with 741 yards in 2012.
