Tuesday is Auburn’s pro day.

What a great opportunity for a bunch of up-and-coming football players.

Like this one kid, Cam Newton.

Ever heard of him?

Anyway, he’s throwing alongside some other ex-Tigers, all looking to impress NFL scouts.

With a positive attitude like that, he might just make it in the league.

Maybe he’ll be the No. 1 overall pick in the NFL draft. Who has that pick again? Oh, yeah, Carolina. Can’t you just picture Newton in Panther Blue?

But, if that does happen, maybe he’ll get to take part in Auburn’s pro day 12 years after the first time, in hopes of getting another shot at the NFL.
