SPARTANBURG, S.C. – Is Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton going through a midlife crisis? At the age of 27?
That’s what outside linebacker Thomas Davis jokingly told the NFL MVP after Newton arrived at training camp sporting a new blond goatee that looks like something out of the Odell Beckham, Jr. style book.
“I think we’re both at a midlife crisis right now,’’ Newton jokingly said of Davis on Friday. “He said I was too old to be blonding my beard. I said he was too old to have a Mohawk.’’
Newton also arrived wearing a tank top and a big-brimmed, black straw hat that he showcased during his first interview of camp.
