Antonio Brown offers Cam Newton a National Arena League opportunity

However, all hope is not lost for Newton. And if he's willing, there could be an unlikely avenue to resurrect his professional career in the not-too-distant future.

After controversial wide receiver and Albany Empire owner Antonio Brown announced via NewsChannel 13’s Rodger Wyland that he was planning to play for the National Arena League team, attention reached levels not seen in some time. But the seven-time Pro Bowler and four-time All-Pro selection also revealed that he has been in contact with Newton about joining the organization in some capacity.

Hopefully he told Antonio to shove it up his ***. Cam should still at least be a backup in the NFL. He is good enough to be a backup. If some of our other QB's the past couple years still have jobs at lest as backups then he should too.

Cam doesn't need the money so there is literally zero reason for Cam to play anywhere other than the NFL.

If that was the case, he could certainly have taken veteran minimum deals in the NFL prior to now.

The odds of this being a legit story are pretty minimal. 

I don't think he could get a starting gig in the NFL right now.  His arm is shot.  If he wanted to start, arena or xfl would probably be his only shot. That being said, I doubt Cam would actually take the job. 

I think the story could be legit in that Brown contacted Newton.

Considering how Antonio at one point was refusing to pay his players and coaching staff, it would probably be good for anyone joining that team to be independently wealthy.

Sheesh, someone needs to get Antonion Brown some serious mental health assistance.

He already said last season he would come in as a backup but IIRC he wanted to be on a contending team. It makes sense. What reason does he have to come back other than chase a ring?

      Panthers attempted to trade up with Ravens?

      By electro's horse · Posted

      Wow I can’t believe the panthers tried to trade up, failed, but still got the guy they wanted to trade up for. I wonder if anyone else has ever said that next you’ll tell me they had Hunter and Brazzell graded as first rounders.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      I don’t think people are saying that picking up the option is a call for the pitchforks. We would have had to do things differently a couple of years back to make declining the option a valid move. We didn’t and here we are. People largely accept that. The pattern it adheres to, reinforces the nausea we feel when the idea of an extension, and at top of the market no less, comes up.  One that he hasn’t shown he deserves.   Same as he did not deserve to be drafted 1.1. Look at Pavia and what really is the difference? Bryce is a nice guy and Pavia is an asshole lol. They are both no margin for error non day one talents. One went undrafted.  Probably should have been drafted day three anyway. The other was way over drafted.

      We hate losing. I don't know Bryce to hate him. His play as a QB, I absolutely hate. It's just not good enough. If there were a lottery held to select the order and all 32 starting QBs could be drafted as the starting QB for whatever team selected them, how long do you think it would be before Bryce's name was called? Top 10, top 20, bottom 8? Think about it.  For me, having never seen back to back games with franchise QB level performance in 3 years tells me what I need to know. We still need to be looking for our solution at QB.
