The Johnny Manziel comeback is nearly complete.
According to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network, Manziel sat down with New Orleans Saints head coach Sean Payton to talk about a return to football.

FA QB Johnny Manziel has kept a low-profile as he trains for a return. #Saints coach Sean Payton appears to have taken an interest in him.

The #Saints still need a backup QB. Payton could make the most of Manziel’s talent. Drew Brees would be a perfect mentor. A lot makes sense.

Manziel still has plenty of hurdles to go through before he gets officially signed by a team but it does appear like he’s turned his life around and is ready for a second chance.
