Johnny Manziel is attempting to make another NFL comeback, and after he threw in front of a handful of NFL teams on Thursday, the idea he could be signed before Colin Kaepernick edged closer to reality.

On Saturday afternoon Manziel took to Twitter to address the frequent comparisons between the two quarterbacks and voice his support for Kaepernick, who hasn’t been signed since he began his protest of police brutality and the oppression of people of color in the U.S.

“This will probably cause an uproar, but I’m tired of the [Colin Kaepernick] vs myself comparisons and anger.” Manziel said on Twitter. “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.

“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...

“I rock with you [Kaepernick] you’ve always been good to me and I appreciate that. All the best in your journey my friend wherever that takes you”
