Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton has been a lightning rod in the media from whether or not people like his celebrations, people don’t like it, and there are racial aspects that many allude to for his dislike, besides the football aspect. “You don’t see him dancing”.

“I’m not going to be the one who says what my thinking is, because sometimes it don’t matter what I think”, Williams said.

He has taken part in six Super Bowls, losing three as a player with the Broncos and winning three as an assistant coach – first with the San Francisco 49ers and then with the Broncos.

The five-time league MVP will be playing in his fourth Super Bowl when the Denver Broncos meet the Panthers on February 7 in Santa Clara, California.

Newton acknowledged being leery of talking about how others may perceive him.

But Newton said his conversation with Oher was different. “Nobody changed me, nobody made me act this certain way, and I’m true to my roots”.

Carolina Panthers star Cam Newton says his status as an African-American quarterback “may scare a lot of people” but he will not change anything about himself or his game after reaching Super Bowl 50.

“He has not said anything to me about it”, Eli said in a conference call, according to ESPN. They talk about maturity. They talk about skillset.

Cam Newton believes the criticism surrounding his persona is partly due to him being an African-American quarterback who does not fit the traditional mould, the Carolina Panthers signal-caller said today.

“I think he has always strived to have that separation”, Rivera said. “That’s what I used in that text, along with other words and explicits before the ‘need.’ And I think he got the feeling from it”. “More about what you have accomplished, what you have done”.

He’s too frivolous? Quarterbacks don’t take pictures of teammates during games. He insists that Newton the person remains the same. “I think it’s something that you see in our team’s play and attitude”. “But a lot of people disagree and think you should have fun”. I know there is a lot of money involved and stuff like that, but at the end of the day it’s about entertainment and having fun. Green Bay associate head coach Winston Moss will handle head-coaching responsibilities at the Pro Bowl, in Honolulu, this week – including the game Sunday.

At the time of that 2010 interview, Davis was less than two months removed from his second blown ACL, and of course he didn’t know at the time that he wouldn’t make it back to play that season and even more tragically would play just two games in 2011 before suffering the same injury a third time. It was, after all, a story about finding a place where you are wanted and where people care about you. He also became the first ever rookie quarterback to throw over 4,000 yards in a season.
