Cam Newton Remains Confident Ahead of Free Agency: 'There Aren't 32 Guys Better Than Me'

After a rocky 2020 season with the Patriots, Cam Newton has no plans to hang it up just yet.

Instead, the 31-year-old Newton, who is set to become a free agent next month having spent last season with the Patriots, remains confident that he's still a starting quarterback in the NFL.

"Hell no! I can't go out like that. I hear all of that talk," Newton said on Brandon Marshall's I AM ATHLETE podcast. "My pride won’t allow me to do it. There aren't 32 guys better than me."

After being released by the Panthers following the 2019 season, Newton signed a one-year deal with the Patriots last June.
