In case you haven’t heard QB Johnny Manziel is making his way north of the border. Johnny Football announced earlier today that he has signed with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats.
Made the decision today to sign my contract with the CFL and further my football career after a long break. Very grateful for everyone that’s been supporting me along the way. I believe this is the best opportunity for me moving forward and I’m eager for what the future holds.

Give Johnny Manziel credit. There have been a lot of other QBs that have said how much they want to play, then refused to take this step. Good for him.
