New England Patriots quarterback Cam Newton shared the story behind his shoulder injury, and explained that he’s finally healthy for the first time since 2016. Newton wanted to state the importance of his healthy, while providing a background story for it, during a video he posted to YouTube.
“Last time I’ve been healthy that I can document?” Newton said in the video. “Honestly, 2016.”
Newton referenced the Carolina Panthers’ win over the then-San Diego Chargers in Week 14 as the game where he suffered his shoulder injury.
“I threw an interception, trying to throw it to Benjy (Kelvin Benjamin),” Newton said.
