Cam Newton is in the national spotlight once again, but this time it is not for his strong play.
The former Auburn star and current QB for the Carolina Panthers had a curious exchange with a female reporter during Wednesday’s press conference. Here is the story on Newton’s comments following a question from reporter Jourdan Rodrigue.
Newton has yet to apologize for his remarks. It remains to be seen how, or if, Newton will address his remarks, but at least one company is not waiting for an explanation.
It was reported by ESPN’s David Newton that Dannon has officially cut ties with Cam over the incident. Newton shared the report on Twitter:
