There is no secret about the Seattle Seahawks needing a new quarterback to replace Russell Wilson. Fans are left wondering what the future holds for their team because they didn’t draft any quarterback. There had been constant talks about bringing in Cam Newton to Seattle.

Since he is a free agent, the Seahawks can sign him without much competition. A Seahawks insider recently provided an update on the talks about Newton becoming the team’s next quarterback.

Bob Condotta recently tweeted out and cleared out the air on rumors regarding Newton. He wrote, “My understanding is that any report of the Seahawks being interested in Cam Newton isn’t accurate. They were last year when Russell Wilson got hurt, but my understanding is they aren’t right now. Newton is currently a free agent.”

According to a source, the Seahawks had communicated with Cam Newton last year. Russell Wilson was injured at the time, and Newton had yet to sign with the Panthers. The Seahawks are now possibly left without a replacement for Russell Wilson.

Like last season, Cam Newton might be heading back to Carolina again. The Panthers haven’t been able to fix their quarterback position. There have been serious doubts about Sam Darnold and if he is the right man for them.

The Carolina Panthers drafted Matt Corral during the draft, but it isn’t likely he will start for them in Week 1. Newton, therefore, is heavily sought after by The Panthers.
