Why Michael Vick Has High Hopes For Cam Newton In First Season With Patriots

The past two seasons knocked Cam Newton down.

Now, it’s time for the 2015 NFL MVP to get back up.

A pair of serious injuries led to Newton falling out of favor with the Carolina Panthers, who released the veteran quarterback in late March. The three-time Pro Bowl selection then lingered on the open market for roughly three months before landing with the New England Patriots on a veteran-minimum deal.

As such, 2020 will be a “prove it” season for Newton, and he’ll be challenged to rebuild his stock with arguably the most demanding team in the league.
