Cam Newton Heckled About Free Agency By a Kid at 7 on 7 Football Tournament in Myrtle Beach
Cam Newton #CamNewton
Cam Newton got into it with a teenager on Saturday at a 7 on 7 football camp. Newton, who is very involved in 7 on 7 football (that’s how he met high schooler Deshaun Watson), was walking the sideline when a player yelled something at him that caught his ear. Newton walked over saying he was rich while the kid kept pointing out he was a free agent and saying he was about to be poor. Newton eventually asked where his father was.
At first I assumed the video was old because no one was wearing a mask, but you can see he’s wearing the same Peloton jacket in this video posted on the official and verified Cam Newton 7 on 7 All-Star Team Instagram account.
Does this happen to all quarterbacks? It seems a little weird that high school football players would try to instigate with a guy like Cam Newton, who is investing not just money, but time in something they’re involved in. I guess we can just chalk these incidents up to kids these days.
