Johnny Manziel, an American football quarterback for the Cleveland Browns, caused another distraction during their off time on farewell week. Head coach Mike Pettine is very disappointed about Johnny's trending video that showed him partying hard with his friends in Texas.
The athlete already has a record for miss behavior and being unprofessional through out his young career. From being unprepared in games, having an offseason rehab and even a trending social media picture of him drinking on an inflatable swan.
Mike Pettine before the incident already gave Johnny a chance on six games as the starter of the Cleveland Browns to prove to this franchise, or any franchise, that he was mature and professional enough to maximize some of that innate ability and be a player in this league.
Monday this week, Johnny Manziel was with teammates at the Greater Cleveland Food Bank, boxing Thanksgiving meals for needy families. Johnny spoke to the media about his weekend activities and said he had not seen the video making a stir on social media yet.
In another interview by Mary Kay Cabot of Clevland.com, Johnny said in response to how he's coach feels about his video he says, "I let him know that I'm not going to do anything that's going to be a distraction to this team or be an embarrassment to the organization."
But Coach Mike Pettine had already been updated about the news and is getting tired that his shot at being an NFL head coach is threatened by Johnny's actions.
"I'm especially disappointed in his actions and behavior because he has been working very hard," Pettine said. "The improvements from last year to this year have been tremendous but he still has to consistently demonstrate that he has gained a good understanding of what it takes to be successful at the quarterback position on this level. It goes well beyond the field. We are going to continue to support him in every way possible, but at this point, we've decided it's best to go with Josh as the starter going forward."
The entire thing is disappointing to everyone who enjoys watching Manziel play and now he needs to find a way to avoid getting his career sacked.
