Signs with panthers:

The 32-year old quarterback is already considered among the best to ever suit up for the Panthers and now, he has an opportunity to further build on that legacy. Newton threw for 29,041 yards and 182 touchdowns with a career record of 68-55-1 as the starting quarterback of the Carolina Panthers.

Newton also won the NFL MVP award in 2015, where he tossed for 3,837 yards and 35 touchdowns en route to a Super Bowl appearance.

Xfl:

According to ESPN’s Dianna Russini, the Carolina Panthers will sign the former Houston Roughnecks quarterback after he impressed during his limited time in the XFL.

This comes after the Panthers, who reached an agreement with quarterback Teddy Bridgewater this offseason, announced they will allow Cam Newton to seek a trade.

Walker’s timeline to the NFL appeared to accelerate some when the XFL announced on March 12 it suspended its inaugural season amid concerns about the COVID-19 pandemic.

Walker played four seasons collegiately at Temple from 2013 through 2016 and led the Owls to bowl games and 10-win campaigns in his last two years. He also threw for 3,295 yards and 22 touchdowns as a senior in 2016.

The Temple product was on the Indianapolis Colts’ practice squad for two years when Andrew Luck was the quarterback, and the latter apparently pushed his father, XFL commissioner Oliver Luck, to feature Walker in his league.

Panthers:

The former superstar quarterback who once won an NFL Most Valuable Player Award and led the Panthers to a Super Bowl appearance is again in Panther blue and black.

Newton signed a one-year deal with the team worth up to $10 million, including $4.5 million fully guaranteed and a $1.5 million roster bonus, NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported.
