Whether it was a Bojangles publicity stunt or not isn’t clear, but Twitter loved it, with some fans claiming it made Newton seem “down to earth.”
Cam Newton getting a box of Bojangles at training camp, while in pads, might be the most Southern thing I have ever seen. This is awesome. pic.twitter.com/dWpsuKvb8r

Newton playfully sat down with a circle of team mates and pretending to pass out the food. But the group quickly hopped up and turned their attention back to practice, setting the chicken aside.

Cam loves training camp, you can totally tell. This could Cam’s year to finally bring it all together. Who’s hungry for some chicken?
