Cam Newton on wearing fox tail: I have the swag to pull it off

After a five-touchdown performance that helped the Carolina Panthers improve to a 10-0 record, quarterback Cam Newton earned the right to wear anything he wanted to the press conference, even a genuine fox tail—at least according to him.

While Newton is known for wearing shoes without socks or questionable women’s capris that the public takes note of, the fox tail was undoubtedly the eyebrow-raising item in this Sunday’s outfit.
