When Johnny Manziel signed on to played with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats in May, most observers assumed it was just a matter of time before he become the starting quarterback for the CFL team.
Tiger-Cats starting quarterback Jeremiah Masoli's performances have kept Manziel firmly on the bench for the moment. The former Oregon Ducks quarterback has been red-hot to start the season and he has tied a CFL record for most consecutive games with at least 300 yards passing with nine.
Masoli has completed 98-of-149 passes for 1,378 yards with four touchdown passes and four interceptions while completing 65.
