Former NFL star quarterback Cam Newton was at one of Sanders’ games recently; however, the two football players had an awkward interaction. A clip from their meeting saw Sanders tell Newton, "you be on that weird s--- bro."
"You know what you did," Sanders told Newton with a smile, adding that they would talk when there are fewer cameras around.

"We talked about it, and we had a great conversation, but how I feel is how I feel about anything and everything. I just got to work in areas of my life about forgiving. That’s what dad teaches me overall."
