Cam Newton ‘Absolutely' Wants to Be Back With Patriots in 2021

Although his current contract expires after this season, Cam Newton is up for staying in Foxboro.

The New England Patriots quarterback told NBC10 Boston's Raul Martinez on Tuesday that he "absolutely" wants to be with the team next season.

"I think for me, I'm always up for a challenge," Newton said. "There's a lot of unfinished business, knowing there's a lot of answers in that locker room."

Newton added that he believes he and the team can turn it around in 2021.

The 10-year NFL veteran is currently set to become a free agent at the end of this season after signing a one-year contract with an average annual salary of $1.
