What a horrible, horrible idea and a horrible thought.

I mean, what would NFL history be without stand-out names/players like Johnny U?  Broadway Joe?  Mean Joe Greene? Too Tall Jones?  Ted 
The Stork" Hendricks?  And that's just to name a very few of hundreds and hundreds.

"The name on the back of the jersey mean anything, its the name on the side of your helmet" is college rah-rah bullpoo.  It was college rah-rah bullpoo in the NFL by the time the 1960's rolled around, it sure as HELL is college rah-rah bullpoo in the 2020's.

For the start of training camp, so there would be more competition, it's a process.

For someone that has not been deeply in touch with this saga, does anyone have the relevant links to things Cam has said?  I saw his initial response to what the Panthers said about allowing him to seek a trade... has there been more directly from him?

Outside of the one Instagram post which I'm pretty sure is within this thread, nothing that I've seen.

Quick question, so the Rams had to release Gurly before 4pm today otherwise they would be on the hook for 10mil, why we didn't release Cam before 4pm???

Thats pretty spot on

Colin Cowherd: “According to a story, Cam Newton may have to accept a backup role to remain in the NFL. And a story today said the Redskins are interesting in Jameis Winston, NOT Cam. Bears? NOT Cam. Raiders? NOT Cam. Colts? NOT Cam. Chargers? NOT Cam. I’ve often compared Cam to Russell Westbrook but he’s now becoming Carmelo Anthony. No self-awareness, refuses to adapt to the new three-point league, semi-committed, writing off that great reputation in college, and has aged poorly. Cam is distracted and is only ‘kind of’ committed. What’s the market for Cam? He’s inaccurate – 59% completion percentage, and take away one great year and his passer rating is around 85. He’s .500 since his MVP season, and he’s an average quarterback who had one great year. He’s not even great at running around anymore. Tom Brady was old and expensive, Cam is young and cheap and there are NO takers. There is no market for Cam.”

Cowherd is a scumbag and has hated on Cam for years. The media is disgustingly biased against Cam and now it’s effecting his employment. Gross

fug Cowherd.  There isn't a market for Cam because of his injury history - nothing else.

Ah okay.  The way people had been talking I thought it was more and I'd missed it.

While I agree the commentary out there is brutal and uncalled for the reality is not a single team so far believes Cam to be healthy enough to play again.   Seeing such a promising young man with such God given talents and infectious smile come to the point of possibly being out of football is a sad, very sad.  I hate the way his tenure here ended.

Cam hasn't finished a full season reasonably healthy since, what, 2015?  it sucks.  this team broke him down.
