Emmanuel Acho really wants Cam Newton to hang it up and call it a career.
The former NFL linebacker turned sports analyst stated on Speak For Yourself that either him or the Carolina Panthers QB needs to retire.
“Either Cam Newton has to retire or I have to retire because I refuse to keep doing this, I can’t take it.”
“We both have a job to do, and I’m trying to do mine well, but I can’t do mine well and sleep well at night based on how you playing.”
“Cam, I don’t wanna have to come on this show and talk about how you have the worst completion percentage we’ve seen since 2004. I don’t wanna come on this show and talk about the fact that Cam Newton can spike the ball on every play and have a higher passer rating.
“I don’t want to come on this show and talk bad about Cam Newton.”
