That means he is essentially a free agent and he's already taken advantage of his status. He could end up on a Super Bowl contender for the 2017 season as he has gotten a tryout with the Carolina Panthers according to Joe Person of the Charlotte Observer.
The Panthers currently have Derek Anderson and Joe Webb as backups, but both of their contracts run up after the 2017 season and we all know the last time Anderson got in the game for Newton. He immediately threw an interception and started the slide that would doom the Panthers against the Seattle Seahawks.
