Cops knew Cam Newton was in wild brawl because of his ‘hat and hairstyle’

Cam Newton wasn’t hard to spot in a brawl at a 7-on-7 football game in Atlanta on Sunday, according to one cop at the scene.

When authorities rushed to the scene — where the former NFL quarterback was seen in a physical altercation with two TopShelf Performance (TSP) coaches — an officer said he quickly recognized Newton due to “his hat and hairstyle,” according to an Atlanta police report.

“I recognized Cam Newton because of his hat and hairstyle,” the statement from one officer read. “As [I] headed towards the stairs this group were quickly out of my line of vision. The group disappeared behind some tents. By the time [I] arrived to the top of the stairs the incident was over.”

The former All-Pro quarterback is known for his unique hats and funky fashion, and wore a dark cowboy hat with his hair poking out of the top at the event — where Newton’s C1N program participated in the tournament, which included youth under-15 and under-18 teams in Georgia and Alabama.

Police stated in the report that it was unclear what started the scuffle, which broke out around 2 p.m., and that no one involved wanted to pursue criminal charges against one another.

Another officer stated in the court documents that he saw two males “grabbing and pushing” Newton, and that’s when he ran over and tried to break it up.

No one involved in the altercation requested medical assistance, officers said.

“Neither Mr. Newton or any of the other involved persons who remained on scene indicated that they required medical attention or wished to pursue criminal charges,” the statement read.

“The responding officers completed an information only incident report to document what had occurred. At this time, it is unknown how or why the scuffle occurred.”

TopShelf Performance trainers/coaches Stephon and TJ Brown, the brothers who brawled with Newton in video footage shared on social media, said tensions were brewing throughout the weekend — especially after TSP defeated Newton’s C1N on Saturday in a heated game.

The brothers’ told Fox News Digital that the trash talk became personal with Newton, who allegedly taunted TSP while they were on the field — and had a separate incident in a parking lot with TJ.

Newton and the brothers reportedly have known each other since 2020, when the former NFL MVP appointed TJ and Steph to his coaching staff for C1N 7-on-7 teams.

Things apparently soured and the brothers said they left C1N in 2022 to create their own 7-on-7 team, TSP.

TJ and Steph added that they hope to “figure this thing out” with Newton for the sake of the kids and players.

Newton has yet to address the incident publicly.

The No. 1 pick in the 2011 NFL Draft out of Auburn, Newton went on to play 11 seasons for the Panthers and Patriots, earning three Pro Bowl nods and an NFL MVP in 2015, when he led the Panthers to a Super Bow appearance.

He last played in the NFL in the 2021 season with the Panthers.
