Cleveland Browns: Johnny Manziel wants to comeback, 5 teams that could take him

5. Los Angeles Chargers

What city is big enough to hold a star like Johnny Football? Well, any now because he’s not the star he once was. That’s not to say his name won’t still draw a crowd, and no team needs to draw a crowd as bad as the Los Angeles Chargers.

They already play in the smallest venue in the league as the Stub Hub Center in Carson, California maxes out at 27,000 seats. Even with such a small stadium, the Chargers couldn’t fill the stands and when it was full, it was usually with fans of the opposing team.

This isn’t to say they need to start making all their moves based on marketing, but a little bit of that makes sense considering it is after all a business. Sure, with Philip Rivers entrenched as the starter, Manziel would only be a reserve, but he would surely sell merchandise as well as preseason tickets for the fans who wanted to see if he was the same guy.

It would also give the Chargers a guy they could potentially groom behind Rivers, who likely has limited time left to play the position as he just turned 36-years old in December. Maybe a long shot, but one worth watching.
