Like it or Not; Manziel’s Latest Incident IS a Big Deal

Manziel was, according to eyewitnesses, driving erratically on I-90, with speeds in excess of 90 miles an hour while passing cars on the shoulder, which is a no-no in Ohio. Yet he was not cited with any traffic violations. Crowley, who sported an abrasion on her wrist and was combative with officers, was also not cited and allowed to leave with Manziel.

As a Browns fan, this has to be yet another red flag in a series of red flags in the short career of Manziel. As a Browns coach or front office member, you have to wonder if you can ever fully trust this guy to be the face of your franchise and give him the keys to the offense. You have to wonder when it’s time to walk away.

Manziel partied his butt off following his getting drafted in April of 2014, and it was well documented on social media and TMZ thanks to his buddies’ cell phones.

There was the drunken rant while holding up a stack of dollar bills while sitting in a hot tub the day he signed his rookie contract.

There was the shot of him passed out in a floating swan with a bottle of high-end champagne in his hand. There was the shot of him in a bathroom rolling up a dollar bill, presumably to snort some type of drug.
