Johnny Manziel shook the entire football community on Saturday morning after he made an announcement that he will in fact be joining the Hamilton Tiger-Cats for the 2018 CFL season. Less than 24 hours after making the deal official, the man known as ‘Johnny Football’ was on the field in his new threads and with his new teammates for the very first time.
It was just the opening day of training camp so the players weren’t expected to pull off anything too crazy, but Manziel was out there in his new black and yellow threads and was doing whatever it took to be part of the team.
Manziel isn’t expected to start for the Tiger-Cats, but anything is possible. Clearly he plans on working his way into the starting role or else he wouldn’t have made the move to the CFL. One thing’s for sure, there’s going to be a lot of fans making their way to Ticats games this year just for the chance to catch a glimpse of Johnny Football in action.
