Alright, that headline is a bit premature. But I can't help being excited about the rookie
quarterback for the Carolina Panthers. To put it bluntly, rookie quarterbacks usually suck. Cam
Newton hasn't sucked. In fact, he's been pretty darn awesome.
Even though the Panthers are 0-2, it hasn't been Cam Newton's fault.
The NFL lockout hurt a lot of people. People lost jobs, sports writers were left with nothing to
write about and football fans were bored out of their minds. But nobody lost as much as Cam
Newton.
The No. 1 overall pick in the 2011 NFL Draft signed with the Carolina Panthers on Friday.
However, due to new rookie contract restrictions, Cam Newton's deal was worth only $22 million.
