Cam
Newton
recently
dropped
the
bombshell
that
he
would
return
to
the
NFL
under
one
condition;
that
he
gets
to
play
for
the
Atlanta
Falcons.
The
former
NFL
Quarterback
is
quickly
settling
into
his
post-playing
career
as
a
sports
personality
and
the
ATL
native
has
been
releasing
his
Funky
Friday
YouTube
videos.
Following
that,
he
tamed
up
with
Brandon
Marshall
for
a
live
show
titled
I
AM
ICONIC,
and
during
an
appearance
on
Good
Morning
Football, Marshall
questioned
Newton
about
an
NFL
return.
Camn
then
shot
his
indirect
shot
at
the
Atlanta
Falcons
to
be
their
next
quarterback.
“It’s
not
even
three,”
Newton
said
about
which
three
teams
he
would
possibly
go
to.
“It’s
just
really
one.”
“Me
having
a
family
now,
it’s
always
been
about
family
and
I
don’t
see
myself
leaving
Atlanta,”
Newton
said.
“If
it’s
not
Atlanta,
I
don’t
want
to
[come
back].”
The
timing
of
this
comment
is
what’s
interesting
because
it
almost
seems
calculated.
The
Atlanta
Falcons
desperately
need
a
new
head
coach
and
also
need
a
new
quarterback.
If
there
was
a
time
to
shoot
the
shot
it’s
now,
even
if
Cam
hasn’t
played
in
almost
three
years.
If
the
Falcons
take
the
bait
there’s
a
slim
chance
he
will
be
the
starter,
but
having
a
vet
as
backup
quarterback
is
never
a
bad
thing.
Could
you
see
Cam
Newton
playing
for
the
Falcons?
