I've been quiet about this because I didn't want to create a distraction for my team and appreciate the privacy in this joyous time. — Cameron Newton (@CameronNewton) December 31, 2015
In a post from USA Today, the athlete explained why he and his girlfriend thought of the name Chosen for their son.
"I wanted something that would be masculine, but yet unique," Newton said. "I'm not a big fan of juniors and every person that I've had this conversation when I say, 'I don't want to have the pressure of him being a junior,' they reply, 'what the hell do you think Chosen's going to bring?'"
