NFL fans got some big news on Thursday thanks to Cam Newton and the Carolina Panthers.
With Sam Darnold recovering from injury and struggling on the field, the Panthers are bringing back their former star quarterback to see if he can revive the team for a playoff push in the second half of the regular season.
Newton is getting a one-year deal from the Panthers worth up to $10 million. The contract includes $4.5 million fully guaranteed and a $1.5 million roster bonus.
Once news of the deal broke, NFL Twitter was buzzing with its hot takes on the signing and whether Cam will be able to find some magic under center for his second stint in Carolina. Of course, there were also some jokes, and they were as incredible as you would expect.
So what did Twitter have to say about the Newton signing?
