WATCH: Cam Newton literally dunks on his opponent, draws response from Steph Curry
Former Auburn star Cam Newton used all of his reach to score a nine-yard touchdown against the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday.
The Carolina Panthers quarterback, with a defender grasping for his legs, reached above defensive back Desmond Trufant and reached the ball across the goal line as his arm slammed into Trufant’s helmet.
Newton, who is listed at 6-foot-5, drew a response from NBA star Stephen Curry, who himself is 6-3, of the Golden State Warriors.
It appears Newton’s doing more dunking these days than the former NBA MVP.
Cam out there dunking on people now? I’ll have to ask him what that feeling is like later #iplaybelowtherim
