THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. -- Los Angeles Rams defensive end William Hayes has some advice for Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton, who has grown frustrated by absorbing an inordinate amount of late hits that do not get flagged.
Said Hayes: "Tell him to slide a little bit faster."
The Rams will be Newton's next opponent, hosting him from Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum in a Week 9 matchup at 1:05 p.m. PT this Sunday. It'll be a hellish challenge against a 6-foot-5, 245-pound reigning MVP who is undoubtedly the NFL's best dual-threat quarterback.
