If there's one thing that is consistent with Cam Newton it's his honesty in his interviews.
Even during a trying 2020 season, Newton was always forthcoming with the media.
Newton joined ESPN Radio's "Keyshawn, JWill & Zubin" show on Thursday and expressed confidence that this coming season will be different than a year ago.
"For me, the Patriots' organization has been impeccable ... my time there has been everything I could have asked for," he said. "I guess it's now time for me to uphold my end of the bargain, through and through."
Newton added: "I don't want to get so caught up in promises and things like that, but I can guarantee you that there's been a shift in comfort of knowing more. And I think that's added value in itself."
The quarterback knows no matter what he says the only thing that matters is what is put out on the field.
"I'm just being honest with you. Me having this conversation in July is irrelevant. This is just going to be the click-bait for the next 24-to-48 hours -- 'This is how Cam feels.' But truth be told, nothing is going to matter until July 22 [when he reports to facility]," he said. "Then as training camp goes forward, everybody is going to start seeing, 'What's the work that's been put in? Has he been in the playbook? Does he really understand? Is his comfort what he says it is? Is he in good shape? Is his shoulder holding up? Is his foot holding up?
"We play in a sport that is strictly based off the final product. And the final product is on game days. With that being said, it's just going to come down to winning and losing."
The first training camp session is scheduled for July 28.
