Jarrett Stidham is Handing Over the Patriots Starting QB Job to Cam Newton

In addition to becoming an interception machine, Patriots second-year quarterback Jarrett Stidham is dealing with a hip injury that won't have him at 100% for weeks.

It appears as if Stidham is handing over the starting job to former MVP Cam Newton without much of a fight.

Patriots’ QB Jarrett Stidham was taken to a local hospital on Thursday for precautionary tests on his upper leg that came back negative, per league sources. Stidham returned to the team this morning and went through practice Friday, though with a lighter load than usual.

Per source, the injury to Stidham is a hip and it will be several weeks before he's back to 100%. #Patriots @nflnetwork @AroundTheNFL https://t.co/HX4OUF9PbC

The Cam show in New England is going to be fun to watch.  Between the postgame old lady outfits and his first down celebrations, it's going to be entertaining as hell.

Don't be too sure that the Patriots dynasty is over just yet.  A healthy Cam can do amazing things.
