Stephon Gilmore Addresses Cam Newton Signing With The Patriots

Cornerback Stephon Gilmore appeared on the Ringer’s “Bakari Sellers Podcast” to talk about his Patriots. He touched several topics, and the signing of Cam Newton was the main topic. According to the cornerback, Newton has enough talent to replace star quarterback Tom Brady. The GOAT took his talent to Tampa Bay, and he will probably retire as a Buccaneers quarterback.

“I think it is a great signing,” Gilmore said. “Think Cam is very hungry. I have always been a Cam fan. I think he is hard to prepare against, and he has a great opportunity to compete for a starting job.”

Newton will compete with journeyman veteran Brian Hoyer and second-year quarterback Jarrett Stidham for the starting position in September. Newton is so talented, and he has the motivation he needs to earn the starting role. Head coach Bill Belichick did a really good decision. The Patriots didn’t show a lot of interest for the former Carolina Panthers quarterback. Well, they changed their mind, and Newton can easily step in as a replacement for Brady.

Stephon Gilmore is right about the Patriots and Newton

Coach B doesn’t really talk about the team’s decisions. He keeps Patriots happenings close to the chest. Can you imagine him and Newton on the field together? Their connection would put the Patriots on the top. Newton is a great fit for Belichick. The Buffalo Bills and New York Jets may try to overtake the control of the AFC East, but Belichick won’t let them move on with a win. He is the best coach and that’s it.

“I don’t think as big as him, as strong. I think he is his own unique player,” he said. “Obviously he can run the ball, [and] he can throw it [too]. Anytime you can do both of those things, it is hard to get ready for a certain thing, so he always keeps you off guard. He is very hungry this year. He is healthy now, so I am just looking forward to him helping our team out.”

Gilmore has great words for his new teammate, and we believe they can do so many great things together.
