As was first reported by Justin Dunk of the Hamilton Spectator, the current Texas A&M football quarterback appears to have had a professional workout.
Sources say Manziel was put through the paces by the Riders in Florida in advance of last month’s Senior Bowl. Manziel resides on the Hamilton Tiger-Cats’ negotiation list, having been added on Sept. 9, 2012, and Saskatchewan did not have permission to conduct the workout. That’s a violation of CFL bylaws, according to the league.
There has already been chatter of Johnny Manziel being the perpetrator of the breaking of CFL rules by working out with the Saskatchewan Roughriders.
