No confirmation, but Manziel looks set to start for Alouettes against Tiger-Cats
MONTREAL — All signs point toward Johnny Manziel getting his first CFL start for the Montreal Alouettes this week.
When the Alouettes reassembled for practice on Monday, the 2012 Heisman Trophy winner took snaps with the first-stringers before last week’s starter, Vernon Adams.
Coach Mike Sherman would not confirm who his starter will be on Friday against the Hamilton Tiger-Cats, but he told reporters to draw their own conclusions.
The obvious conclusion would be that Manziel starts, with Adams backing up.
