Cam Newton goes to medical tent after big hit
Cam Newton went to the medical tent for examination during the second half of Carolina’s game against Buffalo on Sunday after taking a tough hit.
Newton was sacked by two Bills players on a 3rd down play late in the third quarter and appeared to get hit in the head and have his leg crunched.
