It hasn’t taken long for Cam Newton to understand what Tom Brady saw in Julian Edelman.
Newton on Monday joined “The Greg Hill Show” for his first weekly WEEI interview. It was an interesting conversation, highlighted by the Patriots quarterback saying his fit in New England is a “match made in heaven.“
At one point, Newton was asked about Edelman, the most experienced receiver on New England’s roster. Newton compared the 34-year-old to longtime Carolina Panther Steve Smith, while also explaining why he’s so excited to work with Edelman.
“I see guys like Julian, I can say I’ve never had a receiver like that, outside of like Steve Smith; a person who was a veteran and understood what it took.
