Watch Cam Newton hit Jakobi Meyers in stride for 28-yard touchdown

Cam Newton was on fire against the Eagles — and Jakobi Meyers didn’t look too bad himself.

Cam Newton was on fire against the Philadelphia Eagles in the New England Patriots’ second preseason game of 2021.

He gleamed with confidence —  finishing the night throwing 8 of 9 for 103 yards and a touchdown. Newton had sharp passes downfield and also hit his check downs with ease and patience. One of the highlights of his night came from a 28-yard touchdown pass to Jakobi Meyers. The third-year undrafted receiver had three receptions for 56 yards and he’ll be a crucial part of the offense this season.

Meyers was Newton’s go-to receiver in 2020, as he led the Patriots with 59 receptions for 729 yards. It looks like that chemistry will translate into the 2021 season.
