The former MVP is on the open market.
When it comes to whether the former NFL MVP should play in Dallas, please stop. Is Newton a better quarterback than Cooper Rush, the Cowboys’ current No. 2? Yeah, I believe he is. Does he fit with Dallas? No, he doesn’t. Newton has a strong arm, comes with plenty of confidence and can be signed to a cheap veteran minimum salary of $1.05 million, but he is not the type of quarterback the Cowboys want to pair with Dak Prescott.
Newton is a good guy, but his lack of leadership this offseason and the Cowboys’ desire for younger quarterbacks behind Prescott is more important.
