Cam Newton Signs Extension Deal With Patriots; He’s NOT Leaving!
The former Carolina Panthers QB Cam Newton has decided to stay with The New England Patriots a little bit longer. Read on for more about Cam Newton Extension…
CelebnSports247.com reports that Cam Newton’s time in New England ain’t over yet, the star quarterback is finalizing a deal to return to the Patriots.
Cam Newton did a surprising re-signing with the Patriots which is expected to come later this month, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
What we’re hearing is that Cam’s new contract could reportedly be worth nearly $14 MIL for 1 year!! The dollar amount is said to be a staggering figure considering Cam’s up-and-down 2020 season.
Newton signed with the Patriots last summer on a 1-year contract — his base salary was just $1 million with millions in incentives, but unclear how much he ultimately pocketed from the deal.
And, despite a good opening stretch of games, the 31-year-old finished the season with just 8 TD passes and 10 interceptions.
Clearly, though, the Pats saw enough from Cam to want him back … and the big money suggests he’ll be their starter in 2021.
Of course, the news has to be music to Newton’s ears … the former MVP has spoken VERY highly of his time in New England. – TMZ Sports
2020 was so rocky for Newton as he battled a mid-season bout with COVID and ultimately went 7-8 as the team’s starter — most thought the Patriots would move on this offseason.
