Kleckineau Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Seems he couldnt abide with the terms of his contract. Sounds like code speak for failed tests. https://sports.yahoo.com/johnny-manziel-released-by-montreal-alouettes-192004669.html “We are disappointed by this turn of events. Johnny was provided a great deal of support by our organization, in collaboration with the CFL, but he has been unable to abide by the terms of his agreement,” said General Manager Kavis Reed in a statement. “We worked with the league and presented alternatives to Johnny, who was unwilling to proceed.” At least Hackenberg will have a life after football. This guy (sincerely hope not) may wind up in the gutter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New York Mick Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 He’ll end up in that AAF, probably did it on purpose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thai Jet Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Another LOSER. He must be getting pretty low on the "give me another chance "list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joenamathwouldn'tcry Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 I see an impending implosion. No worries. He can always open a Quarterback's Camp this summer with Christian Hackenberg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fltflo Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 Isn’t his family very wealthy, his mommy and daddy will pay for him to go in and out of rehab for the remainder of there lives. Then he will get the money and go two ways, clean up is act or die of an overdose. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustEndTheSuffering Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 If I were an AAF owner it’s just not worth it. He wasn’t even good in the CFL and he’s too much of a hassle off the field. Guy is in trouble all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this point in his "career" he sadly has become a curiosity as much as a viable quarterbacking option. That being said, a fledgling league, like the AAF or XFL will take a flier on him, at least for the publicity and exposure, if nothing else. After all, Hackenberg got a shot in the new league, despite his limited ability, and body of work. Manziel for all of his warts, is still a better quarterback than Christian Hackenberg, which is not saying much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see him in the AAF but he doesn't even qualify for the XFL because I believe he has had some trouble with the law. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember watching him at A&M one day against Alabama. I don't think the Aggies won, but he had one of those games that just stick in your head. I can't help but root for the guy, but nobody can help him but him. Hope he wants to at least try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow! Great call, I didn't know that. Looked it up and you are right. Vince McMahon says anyone with any criminal record will be disqualified from playing in the XFL. What a change in image from the original XFL. I can't believe this policy will not be amended, to allow those with misdemeanors or insignificant convictions the right to play. Manziel has already tweeted McMahon asking for that consideration. I expect him to reach out to him personally. Vince McMahon is a savvy businessman of the highest order, so if he sees this policy as a detriment to the success of the league, he'll respond accordingly. Unlike Rodger Goodell, he's nobody's fool.
