Adams' frustration may stem from the fact that Manziel is about to cost him his second CFL job. The Tiger-Cats released him in June, ostensibly because they had signed Manziel to a two-year contract. Adams then signed with the Alouettes as a free agent, only to watch the team trade for Manziel. Before Thursday night's game, he even seemed to accept the fact that he would soon become the team's backup, offering up much more measured comments than the "never again" diatribe he delivered after the loss.
