Five years later, Johnny Manziel‘s still the man … ’cause the Heisman Trophy winner reunited with his old bestie, Drake, at Champagne Papi’s concert in Houston!

The award-winning artist and former superstar QB linked up at Toyota Center in H-Town where Drake did his infamous walk … where he walks through a crowd of his fans during his show during his “It’s All a Blur” tour.

Manziel shared a clip on Instagram, saying he was “honored” to walk with his old friend.

“You and your music have changed my life for the better,” the 30-year-old said. “Thank you for letting the kid from Texas share that moment with you #SZN.”

Remember, Aubrey and Manziel became friends back in the day when Johnny was the signal-caller for the Texas A&M Aggies football team … during the time Drake was droppin’ hits like “Take Care” and “Started From the Bottom”.

In fact, Drizzy made a track called “Draft Day” and mentioned Manziel ahead of the 2014 NFL Draft … where Johnny was selected with the 22nd overall pick.

Johnny also got an “OVO” tattoo on his wrist.

Drake’s been bringing out big stars all tour … including Lil Yachty and LeBron and Bronny James!
