I was thinking about a commercial from 2012 featuring star quarterback Cam Newton and a kid named Nate. In the commercial, Nate basically challenges Cam Newton for the starting position as the QB for the Carolina Panthers. It’s a great ad, take a look!
All Grown Up. A few days ago I wondered, “Where is this kid now? Could his plan to be a starting QB be coming true soon?” Well, I found this article from 2021 that has a great update on the kid who played the character of Nate, his name is James DiGiacomo. In 2023, he must be around 18 years old. In the article he mentions choosing acting over sports. I guess his football days are over but you can see him talking about football in this clip as the son of Kevin James in the sitcom from a few years back, “Kevin Can Wait.”
You can also follow James on Instagram @thejamesdigiacomo. Hope he keeps with the acting but if he ever reconsiders the NFL, there are some teams that could use a good QB!
See you all tomorrow…
