Manziel has unapologetically remained true to the party lifestyle he enjoys, despite facing tons of criticism and questions for it. At the beginning, the word out of Cleveland was that the quarterback out of Texas A&M was impressing coaches and his teammates on the field, but a recent report from Cleveland.com says that’s changed and the Browns are now concerned Manziel’s off-season antics have affected his play.
The Browns have been ‘alarmed’ by some of Johnny Manziel’s antics since the draft — especially a photo of him rolling up a $20 bill in the bathroom of a bar — and some in the organization feel he’s lost ground in the quarterback competition heading into camp, sources have told Cleveland.com.
Based on the report it is believed that the Browns believe that Manziel has spent too much time partying and not enough time studying the playbook.
I’ve always said that I don’t have any problems with Manziel enjoying life as long as it doesn’t affect his play in the field. If the reports of his poor play are true, Johnny Cleveland is due for a surprising wake up call. Just as quickly as those adoring Browns fans rejoiced his selection…they’ll turn on him even faster. Maybe it’s time for young Johnny to grow up a little.
