Panthers | Cam Newton hopes to become captain

Carolina Panthers QB Cam Newton said he wants to become a team captain at some point but understands that his teammates will have to vote him as one. ‘Team captain is solely based off of your peers,’ Newton said. ‘I’m going about it each and every day, trying to do my part to prove not only to my team, but first myself, that’s a big responsibility on the field and off the field.’ WR Steve Smith and OT Jordan Gross are currently the team’s offensive captains.
