Cam Newton Remains Patient On QB Free-Agent Market
3 years agoQuarterback Cam Newton does not yet have a franchise to call home for the 2022 season, but according to a text exchange with ESPN's Adam Schefter, he's fine with that. "I am waiting on the best fit as it pertains to winning a championship and getting a fair chance to play," Newton said, citing that multiple teams were interested in acquiring his services. Newton did not take the field in '21 until Week 10 when he was reunited with Carolina after injuries and below average performance forced head coach Matt Rhule's hand. Newton started five games down the stretch, with the Panthers losing all five, as the 32-year-old completed just 54.8% of his passes. It's unclear what franchises would be in the mix to assure Newton starting duties, but his running game would undoubtedly make him a favored DFS asset on occasion if he ultimately finds a gig.
