His completion percentage was 54.8, the second-lowest of his career, and he threw 4 touchdowns to 5 interceptions. Carolina went 0-5 in the games that he started.<\/p>\n<p>He wasn\u2019t really the same the season before that either, when he threw 8 touchdowns and 10 interceptions for the Patriots in 2020.<\/p>\n<p>But apparently, Newton thinks he has what it takes to get back into the game. He posted a video to social media on Monday, featuring him working out and throwing passes. At the start of the clip, he wonders why \u201cthese randoms\u201d keep getting jobs, then proceeds to let us know that he will, in fact, be throwing at Auburn\u2019s Pro Day on Tuesday.<\/p>\n<h3>Newton Will Be At Auburn\u2019s Pro Day<\/h3>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Breaking?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">#Breaking<\/a>: Former <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Panthers?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">#Panthers<\/a> QB Cam Newton will be throwing at Auburn\u2019s Pro Day tomorrow <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/GLlapFTjnp\" target=\"_blank\">pic.twitter.com\/GLlapFTjnp<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 NFL Rumors (@nflrums) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/nflrums\/status\/1637969428779266048?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">March 21, 2023<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The yearly event will of course be held for the players that are just leaving Auburn and heading to the NFL for the first time. Players like Derick Hall and Colby Wooden will be looking to solidify their stock for the upcoming draft, but it will most certainly be Newton who gets the publicity during the workouts.<\/p>\n<p>Will anyone care? NFL teams are well aware of Newton\u2019s presence and the fact that he is available, yet they all chose to go with younger players to fill holes during the 2022 season. There likely isn\u2019t much that he could show while playing in shorts at a college workout that scouts don\u2019t already know, but he\u2019s going to try anyway.<\/p>\n<p>If a team were to be interested at all, it likely wouldn\u2019t be before training camp. Should there be a starter who gets injured (or perhaps his backup as well), then a team might come calling for a veteran with a big arm. It would be impossible to envision a team that would be likely, but should he have an overly impressive Pro Day, then Cam Newton could get himself back on the radar of some NFL franchises.<\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<h2>NFL Betting Guides You May Like<\/h2>\n<hr\/>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/sportslens.com\/news\/cam-newton-will-throw-at-auburns-pro-day-on-tuesday\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There were a lot of quarterback injuries around the NFL last season, opening the door for some lesser-known players to get their chances under center.
