Johnny Manziel's future in the National Football League remains uncertain, but Super Bowl 50 Most Valuable Player Von Miller thinks the troubled quarterback could turn the tables around if he moves to the Denver Broncos.
Miller said in a recent interview with GQ that Manziel still has a chance to prove his doubters wrong. The former Texas A&M standout had troublesome rookie and sophomore years in Cleveland, but Miller is convinced that Manziel will still be in the league next season.

"Not only will he be back in the league -- of course I'm biased -- I still feel like he has a lot of game left in him," Miller said of Manziel. "I feel like the world hasn't even seen him get down yet."
Miller believes Manziel could make an impact if he will have enough support around him. The Broncos linebacker then uttered an intriguing statement, saying that Manziel could eventually play in Denver.

"Some of the stuff he was doing in college, he going to do the exact same thing in the National Football League," Miller continued. "I feel like -- you know you never want to blame a team -- I don't think he had enough support around him. Who knows? You might see Johnny Manziel in Denver."
While a deal is unlikely to happen anytime soon, it is worth noting that the Broncos are expected to look for quarterbacks this offseason after legendary QB Peyton Manning officially announced his retirement on Monday.
Brock Osweiler, who went 5-2 for the Broncos when Manning was out because of injury last season, is also not a lock to take Manning's place, as he is also expected to entertain offers from other teams starting Wednesday.
But in the event the Broncos eventually decide to go after Manziel, they will still have to deal with the Browns. The Browns were expected to release Manziel on Wednesday, but NFL insider Adam Schefter of ESPN said that the former first-round pick will not be cut this week.
"I don't think the Browns do anything for a while," Schefter told ESPN Radio via Yahoo Sports. "A lot of people have been waiting for the start of the league year, thinking they were going to release him. The Browns are not expected to release Johnny Manziel when the new league year begins."
It is still unknown at this point why the Browns opted not to release Manziel, but they are likely hoping that they could get something in return for Manziel if they decide to hold onto him instead of giving him up for nothing.
