Cameron Jerrell Newton is an American football quarterback who is a free agent. He has played for 11 seasons, primarily with the Carolina Panthers of the National Football League (NFL).
Nicknamed “Super Cam”, he is the NFL leader in quarterback rushing touchdowns and second in quarterback rushing yards. He was selected first overall by the Panthers in the 2011 NFL Draft.
Newton made an impact in his first season when he set the rookie records for passing and rushing yards by a quarterback, earning him Offensive Rookie of the Year. He is one of four African-American quarterbacks to win NFL MVP and was the first to solely receive it.
Newton was released by the Patriots the following year and returned to the Panthers midway through the 2021 season, but was not re-signed afterwards.
