Cam Newton Getting Blasted for Petty Comments About Brock Purdy

Former Carolina Panthers and New England Patriots quarterback Cam Newton is at it again.

The 2015 NFL MVP appeared on his 4th and 1 podcast and suggested that San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy isn’t a “game changer.” In fact, Newton doesn’t even consider Purdy a top player on the 49ers.

We will see if Newton and other Purdy critics will change their tune if he’s able to lead the 49ers to a victory over Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl 58.
