This week, a photo of former Heisman Trophy winner Johnny Manziel surfaced showing the former first-round pick wearing a Miami Dolphins hat, sparking speculation that he could be considering a comeback to the NFL with the Dolphins. But Manziel himself was quick to clarify things.
On Tuesday night, a fan shared a photo showing Johnny Manziel wearing a white bucket hat with the Miami Dolphins logo on it and pondered if it meant a potential return for the former star.
“[Johnny Manziel] repping the dolphins could there be a return?” the fan asked.
But Manziel was quick to shoot down the idea and explain why he was wearing the hat.
Absolutely not, my time for football has came and went. I just love Tua and Mike McDaniel so I’m always going to show support. Im a fan of people in the sport of football, not teams… https://t.co/N5O6T26Qph

“Absolutely not, my time for football has came and went. I just love Tua and Mike McDaniel so I’m always going to show support. Im a fan of people in the sport of football, not teams…,” Manziel said in a post on X, the social media website that was formerly known as Twitter.
Manziel has not played in the league since the 2015 season after he was released by the Cleveland Browns. Manziel then spent time in the CFL in 2018 and the AAF in 2019, then Fan Controlled Football in 2021 and as recently as 2022. But it seems that his playing days are officially over.
