has been out of profe sional football for more than two years. A series of off-field incidents including but not limited to alleged domestic violence committed against his former girlfriend and reportedly rampant abuse of alcohol and drugs have kept Manziel away from the game, but he's recently been attempting to work his way back into the NFL.The most recent step in that attempt was at the University of Martin Maldonado Jersey pro day. Johnny Manziel will have about 35 throws to wide receivers and tight ends here at University of San Diego pro day. He's been training with QB guru George Whitefield down here in San Diego. Eric Williams (@eric_d_williams) Johnny Manziel threw today at the University of Andrew Heaney Jersey Sam Diego.12 teams in attendance. 38 attempts.2 mi ses.Light rain.Strong day say those in attendance. Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) According to ESPN's Eric Williams, 13 teams showed up to the pro day and saw Manziel in action. (It should be noted that it's entirely po sible those 13 teams were merely there scouting players from USD and just happened to see Manziel, as opposed to being there to see Manziel specifically.) Scouts from 13 NFL teams confirmed by the school were on hand to watch Johnny Manziel throw at the University of San Diego's pro day: Bears, Browns, Chargers, Giants, Chiefs, Jets, Patriots, Raiders, Titans, Lions, Jaguars, Panthers and Bucs. Eric Williams (@eric_d_williams) Let's check in on the present and future quarterback situations of those 13 teams: : Drafted at No. 2 last year. : Traded for ; likely to draft a quarterback No. 1 next month. : under contract through 2019, but can save $16M by cutting him after 2018. : is back; Brian Goodwin Jersey drafted last year; own No. 2 overall pick next month. : Traded up to draft at No. 10 last year; traded this offseason. : Signed and ; traded up to No. 3, presumably for a quarterback. : Still employ arguably the best quarterback of all time; Zack Cozart Jersey traded and last season. : Recently signed to a five-year, $125 million contract. : is headed into the final year of his rookie deal, team will presumably pick up his fifth-year option. : Recently signed to the largest QB contract in NFL history. : Recently signed to a contract extension. : under contract long-term. : is headed into the final year of his rookie deal, team will presumably pick up his fifth-year option.So, there's probably not a ton of opportunity there for Johnny Football. There are only a few teams on that list with unsettled "quarterback of the future" situations, and three of those teams seem likely to draft quarterbacks. Maybe the Patriots or Chargers give him a shot; but if there's any player that fits the Patriots' philosophy le s than Manziel does, I've yet to see him, and the Chargers have shown little to make us believe they're getting ready to move on from Rivers anytime soon. Given how teams feel about "distractions" at backup quarterback, it's hard to see anyone giving Manziel that role, but stranger things have happened in the past. He was a first-round pick only a few years ago, and if he impre ses in spring league games a few weeks from now, it' J. C. Ramirez Jersey s theoretically po sible that someone could invite him to camp this summer.
