Oakland Raiders quarterback Matt Schaub might have a very famous backup in 2014.
The Raiders are hosting Johnny Manziel on a pre-draft visit on Monday, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported. Manziel visited the New England Patriots on Wednesday.
The Texas A&M product is one of the top quarterback prospects in the 2014 NFL draft. He became the first freshman in college football history to win the Heisman Trophy in 2012.
Manziel had a highly publicized pro day at Texas A&M on March 27 that eight NFL head coaches and President George H.W. Bush attended. Raiders head coach Dennis Allen was among the head coaches in attendance.
The Raiders hold the No. 5 overall pick in the 2014 NFL draft. They traded a sixth-round pick for Schaub on March 21.
