Cam Newton out for revenge? Ex-teammate colorfully describes QB's mindset

The New England Patriots apparently just signed a quarterback with a serious ax to grind.

Cam Newton officially became a Patriot on Wednesday after New England announced his one-year contract with the team. Newton's signing ends his nearly four-month tenure as a free agent, as 30 other teams declined to add the three-time Pro Bowler after the Carolina Panthers released him in March.

So, how does the 31-year-old QB feel about the rest of the league writing him off? A former Panthers teammate summed up Newton's mindset quite nicely to NFL Media's Mike Giardi.
