Signed with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats of the CFL in 2018. He was the backup qb, and never was put in a game as a Ti-Cat. He was traded to the Montreal Alouettes, and appeared in 8 games. In early 2019, the Alouettes were ordered by the CFL’s head office to release Manziel, for “violating the terms of his contract.” Further, the CFL forbade any of the other of its member teams to sign him either. The terms that were violated were weekly mandatory meetings having to do with his physical and mental health.
