“Cam Newton is Very Hungry” – New England Patriots Star Eager to Play With New Quarterback
Follow Us
The 2020 NFL season will be a roller-coaster experience for New England Patriots’ fans. The departure of the legendary Tom Brady will undoubtedly leave fans morose. However, the subsequent arrival of the 2015 NFL MVP award winner, Cam Newton, is seen as a positive move by supporters.
Newton will push the inexperienced Jarett Stidham for the starting quarterback berth this season. However, there are still many critics who doubt that Cam still has the ‘X-factor’ in him.
A few analysts have argued that Newton is not the man he was at Carolina Panthers five years ago. But New England Patriots’ star cornerback Stephen Gilmore only had words of praise reserved for his new teammate, Cam Newton.

“I think he’s his own unique player. Obviously, he can run the ball. He can throw it. Anytime you can do both of those things, it’s hard to get ready for a certain thing, so he always keeps you off guard.
“He’s very hungry this year. I think he’s healthy now, so I’m just looking forward to him helping our team out,” Gilmore concluded.
Cam Newton’s struggle with foot and shoulder injuries is well documented. However, something seems different with the 31-year-old this year. He looks like someone who has a point to prove.
