Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette lobbied for Cam Newton to join him in Northeast Florida.

Newton remains unsigned after being released by the Carolina Panthers. During an appearance Thursday on ESPN's First Take, Fournette said the 2015 MVP would be a great fit on the Jaguars:

"I feel like, you know, Cam went to the Super Bowl, you know, he's a great guy. I've been knowing Cam for a minute now. Like I told some people that talked to me, I told them it's no disrespect to Minshew.
