Johnny Manziel will make his first CFL start Friday when his Montreal Alouettes face his former team, the Hamilton Tiger-Cats, and his plan is simple.

“I’m going to go out and throw the s— out of the ball, there is no doubt about that,” Manziel said on the Comeback SZN podcast. “I sat down all weekend with the coaches and put in some things that I feel like, ‘Hey, this is what I did at A&M, this is what I felt like in Cleveland we had in our playbook that I liked. These are things that I’ve repped a lot in the past. ... We put some stuff in that I felt like I knew and I’ve repped a lot in the past.”

Despite Manziel’s unabashed confidence, his agent, Erik Burkhardt, isn’t thrilled about his client taking the field less than two weeks after joining the team.

“He’s had like four practices in this offense, I think it’s a little premature,” Burkhardt said on the podcast. “I’m a little bit uncomfortable and I think expectations need to be tempered a little bit because this is not baseball, you can’t just throw him in the five-hole and put him in left field and who gives a s— what jersey he’s wearing.”

Burkhardt asked Manziel if he even knew “more than like nine plays.” Manziel essentially told Burkhardt to relax.

“I think the reps and getting out there and getting a chance to see everything in live game speed, it’s gotta happen eventually,” Manziel said. “Why not happen now?”

Montreal (1-5) and Hamilton (2-4) kick off at 7:30 p.m. ET on Friday (ESPN2).
