Former NFL quarterback Jeff Garcia seemingly had this rant waiting for a long time and was ready to unleash it when Cam Newton was at his lowest.
After the New England Patriots quarterback got benched on Sunday after throwing three interceptions in a loss to the Denver Broncos, Garcia went on a tirade about … Newton’s postgame interview outfit?

On Monday, Newton responded to Garcia’s comments.
“You know what’s crazy, I agree with him,” the former Auburn star said. “And the fact that he’s a former player, he has every right to say that. And until that happens, so be it. But that’s another opinionated theory, and it’s fair to say. I know I come off to so many different people so many different ways and that’s fine. You know what, he’s exactly right. But I’m not changing the way I dress. I’m sorry.
I don’t know Jeff, but I would say this: I do certain things because of the culture I’m from. And where I’m from — I don’t know where Jeff is from, and I don’t want to harp on it too long — but let’s just say he is right.”
