Time to shift the Johnny Manziel focus to the field
But now that he has been named the Cleveland Browns’ starting quarterback for the remainder of the season, the team has to be concerned that it appears he is back to his old ways.
Instagram video, purchased by TMZ, shows the QB holding a bottle of Dom Perignon.
The 2-8 Cleveland Browns kick off at 7:30 tonight on ESPN Monday Night Football against the Baltimore Ravens. After the event, Manziel spoke about his weekend activities and said he had not seen the video making a stir on social media.
While Manziel was reportedly “boozing” at a pair of clubs in Texas on Friday, he was back in OH on Saturday and attended the MI State-Ohio State football game.
We know all this courtesy of the website Busted Coverage, which was quick to highlight Manziel’s latest great adventure (if you could call it that).
“There’s all kinds of people that come out with videos, could be old videos, could be all kinds of different things, I’m not in a state to speak on it, because my focus has been on this today and what really matters in this game on Monday, so that’s where my focus has been”.
But with last week’s announcement that the Browns were turning the starting role over to Manziel, we thought we may be able to focus on what Manziel is doing on the field. So that’s where my focus is, and I haven’t had my focus anywhere else. Manziel did not get arrested or do anything to get into trouble during his two days and nights in Texas, but he brought attention to himself just by being Johnny Manziel. He also came with, through no fault of his own, a rabid fanbase that cared about everything Manziel does – both on and off the field. This has been my main focus, was getting back and getting prepared and. The Browns return to practice Tuesday.
