Newton admits that he feels like a “fish out water” and that the Panthers are the only thing he knows. Regardless, he is committed to getting back on the field.
“It’s so much possibility for me right now, but the fact that this corona situation has hit, I’m not a person to blame or do any that things, man, it’s business,” Newton said. “But at the same time, I think I have been affected in a lot ways, and it’s just unfortunate], but yeah, at the end the day, man, I’m going to let the ball play how it play, man, and go from there.”
