Despite being abruptly cut by the New England Patriots in 2021 to make way for Mac Jones as the starting quarterback, Cam Newton holds no ill will towards the city or its fans. New England’s new franchise quarterback, Drake Maye, shared positive words of wisdom from Newton at the NFL draft, praising the sports culture of the city and encouraging Maye to embrace the experience. Maye, a Charlotte native who idolized Newton while growing up, credits the former MVP-winner as a major influence on his own success. The bond between Newton and Maye is strong, and although Newton’s time in New England may not be significant in the grand scheme of his career, his impact on Maye and the team could surpass expectations.
