Cam Newton: "Nobody has ever been who I'm trying to be"

Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton claims that he has a unique skill set that has never been seen in the history of the NFL.

Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton has claimed that he has all-round talent that has never been seen before in the NFL.

The 26-year-old has been a steady performer for the Panthers since they selected him with the first overall pick in the 2011 Draft, earning his first win in the playoffs in the 2014 campaign.

Newton is optimistic over his future in the league and believes that no player has ever boasted the vast skill set he has at his disposal.

Newton told WCCB-TV: "I say this with the most humility, but I don't think nobody has ever been who I'm trying to be. Nobody has the size, nobody has the speed, nobody has the arm strength, nobody had the intangibles that I've had.

"I'm not saying that to say I'm a one-on-one type of person that this league will never see another. No, I'm not saying that. Hear me out. I'm just saying that so much of my talents have not been seen in one person."

Newton threw for 3,127 yards and 18 touchdowns to 12 interceptions as well as rushing for 539 yards and five touchdowns.
