No reason given as Manziel misses Als practice for 2nd straight day

Johnny Manziel missed Montreal Alouettes practice Wednesday for the second day in a row, while no reason for his absence was given, according to TSN's Matthew Scianitti.

Head coach Mike Sherman said after Manziel's absence Tuesday that the quarterback didn't suffer a concussion in last week's outing despite getting shaken up by a massive hit at the goal line.

The former Heisman Trophy winner has struggled over his first two CFL starts, going 27-of-46 for 272 yards with no touchdowns and four interceptions.

Montreal pays a visit to the Edmonton Eskimos on Saturday.
