Johnny Manziel may be washed up with the Cleveland Browns after the often-trouble quarterback missed a concussion treatment session at the team’s training facility on Sunday and was reportedly gambling in Las Vegas. USA Today had reported that Manziel was in Las Vegas on Saturday night, and the team had no clarification Monday.

“I don’t go to Vegas much, but when I do, I’m myself”, James said.
“I don’t think there is anything that compares to it in professional sports in terms of importance to a team, ” Haslam said. “We have the best fan base in the National Football League, which is the truth, and they deserve to have a team that reflects the reason why they are so loyal”.
Manziel hasn’t publicly acknowledged the rumors of him partying the night away before a game, but his time in Cleveland appears to be coming to a rapid end.
“I don’t really know what his background is per se or anything like that”.
Manziel left without speaking to reporters. The Browns do not require concussed players to be at the stadium for home games.
“He’s his own man”, defensive lineman Danny Shelton said.
The troubled quarterback showed up “disheveled and inebriated” at the Browns’ facility at some point last week, Tony Grossi reported during the Browns’ postgame show on ESPN Radio’s Cleveland affiliate Sunday.
Manziel had been diagnosed with a concussion during the team’s December 27 game and therefore wasn’t required to attend the Browns’ season finale with the Steelers.
BEREA, Ohio – Johnny Manziel was back in the building Monday.
“I think we will expect that of everybody”, Haslam said. However, they may have been a good reason for the lack of photographic evidence.
Cowboys owner Jerry Jones wanted to draft Manziel when he came out in 2014, but coach Jason Garrett and the rest of the staff advised him against it, and they picked offensive tackle Zack Martin instead.

However, during the offseason, Manziel attempted to turn things around.
