Cam Newton goes deep on being the 2nd Black QB to start for the Patriots

Cam Newton will make history on Sunday.
He’ll be the first Black quarterback to be the Patriots’ Week 1 starter and the second Black quarterback ever to start for the franchise.
It’s a big deal. It’s really a big deal. At the end of the day we have to make sure we’re using our platform for positive reasons, and that’s what I want to do. I want to prove to people that there’s more to a person than what you see on the outer level. , Cam Newton told reporters.
I’m a person who got second and third and fourth chances in my life and yet through it all it should always be about what that person’s about, not what that person looks like, Cam Newton told reporters.
And as long as I have this opportunity to impact and empower the community — whether it’s the Black community, whether it’s the white community — it doesn’t matter what community it may be, I just want to do my part as a good samaritan on Earth, Cam Newton told reporters
