Manziel Training With Quarterback Guru George Whitfield

Johnny Manziel is gear up for a comeback in the NFL. With the NFL draft a week away, the former first-round pick of the Cleveland Browns is putting in the work for a return.

The former Texas A&M Heisman winner was playing in the AAF for the Memphis Express before the league shut down a month ago.

To improve his game, he’s training with legendary quarterback guru George Whitfield. Whitfield Athletix has trained the likes of Cam Newton and Andrew Luck. I’m sure these Instagram posts are to both NFL scouts and XFL coaches on notice.

The XFL draft will be in Mid October, could Johnny Football be the #1 pick? If he is not picked up by an NFL team first.

    I fill like John Manziel has matured and is being very humble. If he is drafted to the NFL that will be great and wonderful. Please give him another chance.If he is not picked up in NFL at this time John should go and play for the XFL. Show he can play at a high level stay focused stay clean for a year and I know some NFL team will pick John up
