Why? Are you going to become a network executive? Because nobody else would bother keeping a camera on the backup QB at all times as if he'd be doing anything interesting on the sidelines. (And lol at either of these guys being among the most charismatic QBs of all time, but that's a separate topic) And please feel free to name me 5 more charasmatic QBs than Johnny Football
Feel free to name just 1 if you're stuck.....
I have a feeling I won't be reading a response to this
If you know, then you know.

I remember reading about this guy when he signed with the Montreal Alouettes of the CFL. He didn't last very long. I am not sure what happened there, as I don't follow football.

I looked it up: Manziel was slated to compete with Antonio Pipkin and Vernon Adams for the starting role in 2019,[115] but on February 27 it was revealed that the Alouettes released him on orders from the CFL after league officials determined that he had "contravened" the terms of his CFL contract. The CFL also barred him from signing with any other CFL team.[116] Manziel had previously revealed that as part of his agreement with the league, he was required to see a doctor, attend weekly sessions with a therapist, and submit to weekly lithium tests.[117] According to veteran CFL journalist Justin Dunk, the league decided to cut ties with Manziel after he missed a number of required meetings.[118]

What is unifying and charming about Johnny Football? Is it his domestic violence, his drug issues, or his utter lack of NFL quality talent? Everybody has flaws
That's what makes him human - and makes him a great human interest story
i.e. - Mike Tyson / Lance Armstrong - the story of somebody who falls and rises again
And that's somebody to root for too who's trying to change and keeps getting back up on the horse no matter how many times he falls off
If you forget all the off-field and sideshow stuff with him, all that’s left is that he simply completely and totally sucks as an NFL quarterback. He has no redeeming on-field qualities or talent. Colin Kaepernick would get a job ahead of him. Find the absolute worst third string practice squad guy in the league, we’re talking bottom of the barrel Ben DiNucci level kind of guy, and that guy is Peyton Manning compared to Johnny.

I'd provide you numerous examples of him shining -
However NFL blocks playback of their content (NFL Youtube Clips) on other sites such as this.......

Do you know that Johnny averaged 6.2 ypc running the ball in 2015?
That's one of things I always loved about him
His elusiveness in the pocket
Improvising - scrambling around and making something out of nothing........

He was also good at making nothing out of something.

And he's a weak armed midget with a 50 cent head. He might have been a good QB if he hadn't been such a dickhead. And I'll run naked from here to the Texas A&M campus if he gets on an NFL roster.

He just turned 28 less than 2 weeks ago
Tom Brady is half a year away from 44 years old
Johnny Football is 15 years younger than Tom Brady

30 years from now Tom Brady in 2050 will still be a better QB than Johnny today.

Just pointing out that he's still incredibly young
Look at the George Foreman's and Jaromir Jagr's of the world and what they've accomplished
Some QBs don't even hit their peak and stride until their 30s when they've put it all together
Look how many we see playing in the upper 30s today
And Johnny just turned 28.
He's a young 28
