Browns quarterback Johnny Manziel entered treatment on Wednesday for what sources say to “improve in areas of being a better family member, friend and teammate.
Johnny and his family asked for privacy until he rejoins the team in Cleveland. Browns general manager Ray Farmer said in a statement that they support Manziel’s decision.
Those who spoke out on Johnny’s behavior talked of a yearlong pattern that showed a lack of commitment and preparation, a failure to be ready when given a chance in his first start against Cincinnati and a continued commitment to nightlife, which affected his preparation and work while in the team facility. One source said that “Johnny is his own worst enemy.”
