Former New England Patriots Quarterback And 2015 MVP May Not Be Done

Cam Newton as a starting quarterback should be done in the NFL. Currently Player Profiler has  Newton as the 36th best quarterback in the NFL. Newton in 2021 only played in five games but did not look like he still had it. Newton had a true completion rate of 57.5 and a true passer rating of 57.1 not good numbers.

With Cam struggles as a passer, which again saw him throw more Interceptions than touchdowns, it safe to say he probably will never start again but that doesn't mean he's done. He is still a weapon for teams if he's willing to take lesser money to play that way.

In 2021 Newton ran the ball 47 times for 230 yards and 5 touchdowns.  That makes Newton a weapon. We have seen teams use backup quarterbacks like Taysom Hill or RGIII out of position. If Newton was willing to line up out of position on occasion, he could be a threat. This could extend his playing career but it could also see him get hurt.

NFL teams and Cam Newton have aot of thinking to do when it comes ro Cam. If a team wants to use Newton this way, they have to seriously talk with Newton about expectations and Newton has to realize that his big money days are done. Newton should keep the arena league open as an option. But he has the personality for an NFL sports program.
