More than halfway through its inaugural season, the Alliance of American Football finally has the marketable name it has desperately been searching for. After having previously gone after Colin Kaepernick and Tim Tebow, according to reports, it has now been made official that former first-round draft pick Johnny Manziel will participate in the league.
Manziel was recently kicked out of the Canadian Football League, where he served as a backup, for some type of violation of the terms of his being under contract there. The league even went so far as to say that any other team that attempted to sign him would see the contract voided.
