Aaron Rodgers' brother Jordan drops hot take on LaNorris Sellers-Cam Newton days after his viral Arch Manning verdict

South Carolina quarterback LaNorris Sellers opened the season on fire with his strong outing against Virginia Tech on Sunday. Norris completed 12 of 19 passes for 209 yards and one touchdown while rushing for another TD to lead the No. 10 Gamecocks to a 24-11 win.

On Wednesday, legendary NFL quarterback Aaron Rodgers' brother, Jordan, heaped praise on Sellers. He even drew comparisons between Sellers and former NFL MVP Cam Newton.

“Man, I saw flashes of Cam Newton for exactly what (ESPN analyst) Louis (Riddick) is saying,” Jordan Rodgers said on ESPN's 'Get Up.' “The big, physical, strong runner that can run through you and run by you, I thought was so impressive. He can change a game with his feet.”

Last week, Rodgers discussed the hype around Texas QB Arch Manning and said that the young talent still had a lot to prove. His verdict came true as Manning struggled in the Longhorns' 14-7 defeat to Ohio State on Saturday.

Newton played in the NFL for 11 seasons. He spent 10 seasons with the Carolina Panthers and had a one-year stint with the New England Patriots. Newton led the Panthers to a Super Bowl appearance in 2016, where his team lost 24-10 to the Denver Broncos.

LaNorris Sellers and the Gamecocks will look to build on their season-opening win over Virginia Tech when they host SC State on Saturday. The South Carolina vs. SC State clash will kick off at 7 p.m. ET from Williams-Brice Stadium in Columbia, South Carolina.

Sellers is expected to play a key role in the offense for South Carolina this season. Some also believe that he could win the Heisman Trophy if he keeps up his strong play.
