Inside Cam Newton's Net Worth, Long NFL Career, and Newfound Reality TV Fame

Although NFL quarterback Cam Newton hasn't been on the field in years, that doesn't mean he's going anywhere. Because, thanks to reality competition show Special Forces: World's Toughest Test, he is proving his athletic prowess all over again. And for those who aren't too familiar with the former pro, they might be wondering what Cam Newton's net worth is.

He began his career in the NFL in 2011 when he was drafted to the Carolina Panthers. From there, he played for the New England Patriots before going back to the Panthers in what would be his final time on the field. But outside of football, Cam has been plenty busy, including Special Forces yes, but also as a dad of eight. There's really never a dull moment for the NFL star.

After a long career in the NFL, Cam's net worth, according to Celebrity Net Worth, is $75 million. The average length of an NFl career is just over three years. Cam surpassed that by plenty, since he last played for the league in 2021, rounding out a 10-year-long career. In November 2024, he spoke about his time as a quarterback on his 4th and 1 podcast and, he shared, he knows his time on the field is behind him.

Cam explained on the podcast that, although he isn't officially retired, that doesn't mean he plans to come back to the game.

"At this particular point in time, the question was, 'oh, we don't know if Cam's retired yet,'" he said. "New flash — I'm never going to retire. I know I've played my last piece of football. It don't matter to me to officially retire. I'm in a happy place."

Part of that happy place apparently includes being part of Special Forces, which is led by former members of the military. Celebrities, athletes, and reality TV stars test themselves with various challenges every week, and Cam is part of the Season 3 group of celebrity contestants who agreed to go on the show to prove something to themselves.

It's a good thing that Cam has such an impressive net worth, since he has several kids from a few different relationships. Well, eight kids to be exact. In March 2024, he welcomed his eighth child overall and first baby with girlfriend Jasmin Brown. But, he shared on Funky Friday with Cam Newton, he wouldn't be opposed to expanding his family even more.

"I have eight kids, three baby mamas and I want more," he wrote in the caption of an episode from the show. "But we're NOT a broken family."
