Free-agent quarterback Cam Newton has seen his career nosedive into what appears a forced retirement. The former NFL MVP was not at his best over the last three seasons and, in turn, his prospects on the field to make a comeback look grim — not to mention Newton making controversial and sexist remarks during recent media appearances.
And his latest media appearance isn’t helping his case to get back in the NFL. On Tuesday’s episode of The Pivot Podcast, Newton said he was displeased, in hindsight, with the two organizations where he had landed in the last two years: the New England Patriots and Carolina Panthers.
“This ain’t no remorse. This ain’t no ‘I want somebody to feel sorry for me.’ This is me acknowledging that I understand I’ll own up jumping up in some [expletive] up situations,” Newton said about his last two seasons of football, as transcribed by Panthers Wire.
