Cam Newton addressed getting cut from the New England Patriots in a discussion with his father, Cecil, on the quarterback’s YouTube channel.
As things tend to be with Newton, the message was a little bit all over the place, and came across in a highly entertaining manner, but in the end made sense if you listened closely and beyond the wildest pull quotes.
Start with this: Newton sounded disappointed that he lost the starting job to rookie Mac Jones and was summarily cut. Who wouldn’t be? He wasn’t angry, bitter or conspiratorial, however.
