-Newton started off with stationary targets on Tuesday. He tossed a select few passes to moving targets on Wednesday. On Thursday, his passes to moving targets increased, and Rivera was happy to say he did a little more than anticipated.


-Newton threw comebacks, digs, a post, a quick out. He’s still recapturing his rhythm clearly, but it’s encouraging to see him get back into the swing of things.


-During special teams period, it was interesting to watch tight end Greg Olsen lead a discussion with all four quarterbacks. Olsen was reviewing a red zone route concept and explaining where he felt the ball should be placed in relation to the coverage. It sounds cliché, but he’s very much a coach on the field.


-A couple pretty throws from Allen during the team period. He fired a strike to wide receiver Chris Hogan on a post pattern. Moments later he lofted a pass perfectly over linebacker Andre Smith and into the waiting arms of tight end Temmarick Hemingway.
