Johnny Manziel management team needs to be in panic mode. As a football player the best thing you can do for your financial health is have endorsement deals. Football is a contact sport with a lot of injuries and non-guaranteed contracts. As a player supplementing that income with endorsement deals helps a ton. Manziel has already been dropped by Lebron James marketing company. Now Johnny Football might have partied himself out of his biggest endorsement deal Nike. Nike is reportedly on the fence about dropping Manziel this off-season. Manziel is also likely to be without a football team this off season. A Nike source had this to say.
“We are worried about him and hope things will turn around in the right direction … but we are on the fence if [our relationship] will continue.”
Maybe taking these off the field losses will help Manziel get his act together. Or maybe Manziel will be the next 30 for 30 Broke cautionary tale for rookie athletes.
