As a Patriots fan I didn't see this one coming.
The New England Patriots are releasing veteran Cam Newton and rookie Mac Jones will be the starter after the two had battled for the quarterback job since training camp, ESPN has confirmed. Newton returned to the Patriots for a second year this offseason on a one-year contract with $3.5 million of his $5.1 million salary guaranteed.

I have thought all along that Jones might be the best qb of the rookie crop. The next Tom Terrific?

Alabama keeps churning out QB's. Hopefully, Dallas can convince Cam to play backup to Dak. Cam will be a starter somewhere. Retirement?

No team is going to bring an unvaccinated back up QB into the building.

No team is going to bring an unvaccinated back up QB into the building. Will it matter to him if he is guaranteed salary?

Newton hasn't been good for a long time, and he's not the kind of locker room guy you want if he isn't starting. If the Bills falter, the Pats are ready to take the division right back.

It will be inte4resting to see how the refs call games. Pass interference and roughing the passer in particular. I'm sure we all recall the old days when fans complained about the roughing the passer calls. "Put dresses on them". Sound familiar?
