Johnny Manziel
Player News
Manziel announced Saturday on his Twitter account that he has signed a two-year contract with the Hamiton Tiger-Cats of the Canadian Football League.
Once opposed to playing north of the border, Manziel's tune has changed after receiving lukewarm interest from NFL teams. He completed nine of his 15 pass attempts for 83 yards and a touchdown during The Spring League, proving to still possess talent greater than his competitors at the showcase. Following some struggles with addiction and bipolar disorder that led to a quick exit from the NFL, he will attempt to get his career back on track. A strong showing with Hamilton in 2018-19 could prompt an NFL club to give Manziel, still just 25, another chance to compete for a roster spot.
Johnny Manziel reaches tentative deal with prosecutors for dismissal of domestic assault case involving ex-girlfriend.
Manziel is hoping to get past this to get back into the NFL. In his career with the Browns, Manziel wasn't particularly impressive. It's hard to imagine many teams are willing to take a chance on the Texas A&M alum.
Johnny Manziel has been reinstated by the NFL.
Although he has been reinstated, Manziel is not rostered by any of the 32 NFL teams so there is still much for him to do before making an impact in the league. Until he signs on with a new team, there is no reason to make him a fantasy consideration at this time.
Johnny Manziel reportedly fought friend at a wedding last weekend in Hawaii.
The new and improved Manziel didn't last long as the free agent quarterback continues to find trouble around every corner. This incident overall is probably not a big deal, but the 23-year-old can't get out of his own way and is making headlines weekly. Manziel will continue to hope some team takes a chance on him, but everyone knows that isn't going to happen.
