Cam Newton needs a team for the 2022 season, but his latest comments have him trending on social media for the wrong reasons.
Newton filled up some of his free time recently by making an appearance on Million Dollaz Worth of Game, a Barstool Sports podcast.
“I had a perfect, a perfect example of what a man was in my life by my father. My parents have been together for 36, 37 years now and it’s a beautiful thing,” Newton said, according to Mediaite. “I grew up in a three-parent household. My mom, my father, and my grandmother. And I knew what a woman was, not a bad bitch.”
During the video, Newton was asked to explain the difference between women and “bad bitches.”
“A bad bitch is a person who is, you know, ‘Girl, I’m a bad bitch, I’m doing this, I’m doing that. I look the part but I don’t act the part.’ And there’s a lot of women who are bad bitches, and I say bitches in a way not to degrade a woman, but just to go off the aesthetic of what they deem as a boss chick.
Now a woman for me is, handling your own but knowing how to cater to a man’s needs,” Newton said. “And I think a lot of times when you get that ascetic of ‘I’m a boss bitch, Imma this, Imma that.’ No baby! But you can’t cook. You don’t know when to be quiet! You don’t know how to allow a man to lead.”

Newton, who last played for the Panthers, faced backlash in 2017 for making a sexist dig at a female sports reporter when he said “It’s funny to hear a female talking about routes.”
The NFL condemned Newton’s remark with the quarterback later issuing an apology.
“After careful thought, I understand that my word choice was extremely degrading and disrespectful to women. And to be honest, that was not my intention,” he said at the time. “And if you are a person who took offense to what I said, I sincerely apologize.”
