Johnny Manziel is headed back to the United States to play football.
The former first-round pick of the Cleveland Browns has signed an agreement to play in the Alliance of American Football, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Saturday. Because San Antonio, the team he would have been allocated to, waived his rights, according to Schefter, he will go through the league's waiver system.
Memphis, with a 1-5 record, will hold the first waiver claim once Manziel goes through the system. The Express are on their third quarterback this season, having started with Christian Hackenberg and then gone to Zach Mettenberger. They would have to release a quarterback if they claim Manziel.
Brandon Silvers played the majority of Saturday's 22-9 loss to Salt Lake after Mettenberger suffered an ankle injury early in the game. Silvers completed 23 of 37 passes for 242 yards, a touchdown and no interceptions. Memphis has struggled on offense throughout the season.
Two weeks ago, league co-founder Bill Polian said the AAF had put out "feelers" to Manziel and was in the midst of doing its research on him after he was released from the CFL's Montreal Alouettes.
Manziel immediately becomes one of the biggest name draws in the league as one of the few former NFL first-round picks tied to the league, most notably among them Birmingham running back Trent Richardson.
Other than Orlando, which has Garrett Gilbert at quarterback, most of the league's teams have had some issues at the position.
Standard AAF contracts are for three years and $250,000. However, players can earn more in incentives.

I've actually watched some AAF games for 30 or so minutes of entertainment, even tonight. I have no doubt an AAF team could beat the likes of Alabama or Clemson- and probably pretty handily....

He's toast.. Arena football will be his last stop before its all over I guess.. Fuck him!
Au Contraire! I can see JM insisting that in order to get back in the NFL he needs more practice being under center in the Lingerie League.?

The bottom line is.. Johnny is too late in his career to hope he could latch on and be a serious , viable canidate to actually be something in professional football.. He should be thinking about settling down and thinking about what he's gonna do to survive the rest of his life.. He's a has been who never was.. The league should just move on from his ass and forget about him...
Nickers...."There are no old running QB's in the NFL "~Sam Rutigliano~ -
But will Ghoolie head down to one of their games to see him play?
For kicks and giggles Steve I had to look up Memphis ticket prices, and it's anywhere in the stadium- $20. FWIW, our Class A minor league baseball Dayton Dragons charge $19 for stadium seats.
The bottom line is.. Johnny is too late in his career to hope he could latch on and be a serious , viable candidate to actually be something in professional football.. He should be thinking about settling down and thinking about what he's gonna do to survive the rest of his life.. He's a has been who never was.. The league should just move on from his ass and forget about him...
AAF is hiring a name, that's all. Chasing the dream- but in this case, you can't escape your past. The odds of him making it back into the NFL are about as good as you or me getting a call from one of the GMs. He should realize bombing out in the CFL was the end of the road.

I have No problem at all if he wants to play football and can find a place to do it.

Sorry, it will never be closed as long a Z is one of the Moderators. If you can't stand it, then ignore it. By now you ought to know unless he's dead, guys are still going to talk about Johnny.
