Provides Intriguing Potential For Versatility

There is clearly a stark contrast in play style between Cam Newton and Tom Brady. With that comes different options for Patriots offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels when it comes to being able to craft the offensive system around the quarterback position.

With questions surrounding the Patriots’ receiving threats, having a strong running game will be pivotal to their success in 2020. They will need complementary options like N’Keal Harry to step up alongside Julian Edelman and Mohamed Sanu.

It will be fascinating to see how the Patriots integrate Newton’s ability to run the football considering the circumstances. He needs to stay healthy so that adds complication to the situation, but at the same time, New England will need that production to field a more layered offensive attack.

An intriguing element to monitor will be how Newton’s presence will impact Sony Michel’s production in his third season. If the opposition has to account for the quarterback as a running threat, it would further open things up for the members of the backfield.
