CLEVELAND — Jakobi Meyers has grown into one of the league’s most reliable receivers, and the Patriots may have their old quarterback to thank for that ascent.
Back in 2020, Meyers was a healthy scratch as he struggled to crack the lineup. An exceptionally friendly person by nature, the wide receiver became introverted and got into his own head. On the Emeka Talks Twitch, Meyers said Cam Newton was the one who pulled him out.
“Not too many people know this, man, but Cam really kinda saved my career,” Meyers said.
