There has been a lot to question about Cam Newton’s play in 2020. The former MVP reached back into the past and delivered a touchdown run that was vintage 2015.
It looked like the Buffalo Bills were going to corral Newton for a sack in the second quarter when they learned taking down a 6-foot-5, 245-pounder isn’t simple.
Newton broke free and somehow made his way into the end zone for the 9-yard score that made it 10-9, Buffalo. Of course, Nick Folk did as many kickers are doing and missed the PAT.

That was Cam style off the field and he arrived at Gillette Stadium in classic Cam Newton style, dressed for success.
Cam Newton's outfit is probably his best Zoolander impression to date. (Or is it Hansel?) pic.twitter.com/9NUkklw0Es
