You can fully expect that this situation will be addressed on his “4th & 1” podcast.
Newton’s mission statement for his 7 v 7 organization, C1N, promotes development for young athletes on and off the field.
“C1N is also committed to supporting the community through various initiatives and partnerships,” the statement read. “The organization’s previous ‘Newton’s Nuggets’ program provided mentorship and educational opportunities for young people, while its association with the Boys and Girls Clubs of America aimed to promote physical activity and healthy lifestyles among children and youth. As of recent we have steered directions and focused on the empowerment of young men in high school to ‘lock in’ on their skills inside and outside of football.
“Overall, C1N is a dynamic and innovative organization dedicated to supporting young athletes’ growth and development both on and off the field.”
Cam Newton has been an unrestricted free agent since March 16, 2022, and the former NFL MVP has not given up on his career.
