Cam Newton continues to work with quarterback coach George Whitfield Jr., during the team’s down time between minicamp and training camp.
Newton posted photos of him working at Georgia Tech with Whitfield, while the quarterback whisperer, who the Herald spoke to at length recently, chronicled his work with the Patriots QB, providing a video Q & A on his Instagram account.
The first question, Whitfield asked Newton how he’s dealt “with the haters” who continue to doubt him, and how he manages to process that?
“Simple,” Newton said. “Feed your focus. Feed it. If the hate ain’t in my focus, I don’t feed it. I feed off of it, but I don’t feed it. It’s two different things. When I sense or when I dwell on hatred, that’s the product that’s gonna come out: rage, anger. But that’s the hatred using me, not me using the hatred. So I want to process that and make that fuel me. I don’t dwell on what a person may say, what this person may say, she say, I just use it to my advantage and I feed what I want it to feed.”
Whitfield, who has worked with Newton since training him in preparation for the 2011 NFL draft, also asked the Patriots quarterback to explain how he goes about pursuing a goal.
“You gotta visualize yourself already there. Get your mental thought of being in that moment and taking your place there,” Newton said. “And once you get there, find so much distress that you can gutter up and feel comfortable in it. Whenever that is. And that’s how you grind. You know what I’m saying? Just take your mind to that place, stay there, get uncomfortable, and be comfortable with being in that position.”
Newton has been named the Patriots starter by Bill Belichick, but remains in competition with rookie first-round pick Mac Jones for the top job with training camp four weeks away.
