Johnny Manziel is likely the most highly-anticipated CFL player ever. After off-field issues spelled the end of his first tenure in the NFL, Manziel has been able to work his way back to professional football. While the NFL is his end goal, the next step in what has been coined #ComebackSZN is a stint with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats of the CFL.

After going 7-10, for 80 yards in a solid CFL preseason debut, Manziel took the field in the second quarter in hopes of delivering his first CFL touchdown. On a crucial 3rd and 3, Manziel tossed a bullet to Alex Green.

While it wasnโ€™t exactly a jaw-dropping highlight, it ended a drive where Manziel showed poise. With a turnover on downs looming if the pass had been incomplete, Manziel delivered a perfect pass to his running back. Needless to say, fans are excited to see what happens with the young quarterback chalked full of potential.

 

It will be fun to watch things unfold when the regular season roles around.
