Newton was a six-time Pro Bowler, attending the game from 1992 through 1996 and once again in 1998. He was a very powerful player and was known from some great confrontations against Reggie White among other great players. Newton was one of the best guards in the NFL for over a decade. In 1992 because of the improved play of Erik Williams, he was moved back to left guard, in order to have the best players available in the offensive line.įrom 1992 to 1995, together with Erik Williams, Mark Tuinei, Mark Stepnoski and Larry Allen, he was part of some of the best offensive lines to play in NFL history. Although he became a starter at left guard in 1987, Newton's breakout came with the arrival of Jimmy Johnson as the Cowboys coach in 1989, who evantually moved him to the starting right tackle position. He started out as a reserve offensive lineman, and was nicknamed "the Kitchen" because he was bigger than William "The Refrigerator" Perry, of Chicago Bears fame. When the USFL folded, Newton signed as a free agent with the Dallas Cowboys in 1986. He played there for two years (19) as an offensive tackle.
