At least one high-profile free-agent quarterback now has a home.
According to Adam Schefter and Chris Mortensen of ESPN, quarterback Cam Newton has agreed to a one-year deal with the New England Patriots:
The signing comes not long after Schefter touted New England's confidence in second-year quarterback Jarrett Stidham.
"I think it shows they have a lot of confidence in Jarrett Stidham, and it doesn't preclude them from picking up a quarterback sometime before camp and bringing in another arm at that point in time," Schefter said on ESPN's Get Up.
