Cam Newton Said “Hell Yes” That He Would Return To New England On A One-Year Deal

Things didn’t work out well for Cam Newton last season in New England, but that doesn’t mean he is ready to give up. Newton was asked whether he’d take a one-year deal to return to the Patriots. On the I Am athlete podcast and Newton clearly would like another chance,

“Yes. Hell yes,” Newton replied. “I’m getting tired of changing. I’m at the point in my career where I know way more than I knew last year.”

“They know me,” Newton explained. “Doughboy (N’Keal Harry) knows me. Jakobi (Meyers) knows me. Bud (Damiere Byrd) knows me. The young tight ends know me. The younger guys that are going to come in, ‘This is how Cam reacts.’ We’re still trying to flush out the 20 years of how it used to be.”

Newton came into a tough situation last year with limited time to prepare for the season. He certainly wasn’t at his best. Given a few more weapons and a full offseason to prepare the results could be different.

Brandon Marshall asked whether there is a chance he’d re-sign with the Patriots, Newton replied: “There’s always a chance for everything.”

Marshall then asked whether Newton and the Patriots have had any conversations.

“I can’t say that,” the QB replied.

Newton later added: “You’re asking me, ‘Would I go back?’ Yes, I would go back.”
