He gave a rousing speech in training camp to players he barely knew. During the 2022 season, quarterback Max Duggan was the Horned Frogs’ leader on the field, but Newton emerged as one of their most vocal and emotional leaders in the locker room of a team that will face Michigan on Saturday in a College Football Playoff semifinal.
