The two of the biggest free agent quarterbacks in the NFL are Colin Kaepernick and Johnny Manziel who are hoping for a return to the NFL.
Unfortunately both have been overlooked and ignored. Read on for the latest Twitter rant via Johnny Manziel who is TIRED of Colin Kaepernick Comparison…
CelebNSports247.com has the latest on Johnny Manziel who continues to be compared to Colin Kaepernick presented as a pair of apples or a pair of oranges.
Colin Kaepernick and Johnny Manziel comparison started after Manziel, whose recent workout was public where Kaepernick’s was done in secret.
University of San Diego didn’t figure to draw much attention for its pro day Thursday until word spread that Johnny would be throwing, according to SI.
Manziel was trying to be on the low because it has been 3 years since he’s been on the field and according to many it was obvious. Johnny had this to say about his performance:
I’d only begun throwing with those guys since like the week before. It’s a precursor for what we’re about to do. It wasn’t flawless or anything. I missed a couple of throws.
Johnny was quite effusive in his praise for the controversial Kaepernick but made no secret that he’s grown tired of the comparisons.
The former NFL quaterback took to Twitter making it clear that he still rocks with Kaep.
He posted the follow series of tweets:
This will probably cause an uproar, but I’m tired of the @Kaepernick7 vs myself comparisons and anger. Kap is doing amazing things right now changing lives and donating millions of dollars. His impact off the field from a societal standpoint is legendary and straight admirable.
He continued by weighing in Kaep kneeling and standing up for others:
Standing up for people who often don’t get heard and for a race that continually deals with problem after problem in this country for CENTURIES. This world we live in is absolutely crazy and I believe what he’s doing has an amazing impact…
…The facts of the matter are the reason he’s not being signed are non football based. The guy took a team to the Super Bowl and continuously wreaked havoc on the NFC West and the league. Maybe he had a bad year two years ago but he’s not a bad player and that’s a fact…
…In my opinion the guy still has a lot in the tank but it’s not my place to say what he wants to do with his career. All I can speak for is myself and trying to turn my life around from the depths it was in. God bless and have a great Saturday…
He concludes:
…I rock with you @Kaepernick7 you’ve always been good to me and I appreciate that. All the best in your journey my friend wherever that takes you
