Why Cam Newton is still a free agent

Newton with the Carolina Panthers

The 34-year-old is a free agent and is looking to play his 12th NFL season in 2023. Newton has a theory as to why he hasn't been signed by a team. While on the Undefined podcast, the All-Pro quarterback told Josina Anderson that his hair is the reason he's still on the market:

“It’s been hinted. And I’m not changing. People have hinted to where they say like, ‘Cam, we want you to go back to the 2015 clean-cut Cam.’ But, that was a different me. The thing that is always mentioned is, ‘Cam, you’re scaring people with how you look.'"

There's no indication that any team wants to sign the College Park, Georgia, native but we'll see as the 2023 season inches closer.
