The Cam Newton rumors are running rampant across the NFL landscape right now as Newton is the biggest name available on the free-agent market. He might not be the best name available, but he is the biggest.
Newton is arguably the second-best quarterback that is still available behind Jameis Winston, but carries much more star power than Winston does. That is why the NFL news machine has kind of paused in place waiting to see what Newton will do.
He does not have a lot of options, however. He played really bad in the second half of the 2018 season and missed almost all of 2019, both because of injuries.
