Overview

  • On the Nightcap podcast with Shannon Sharpe and Chad Johnson, Manziel said he intends to "hate" the Browns forever and hopes they lose every game.
  • He acknowledged his own mistakes and said his career derailment was on him, while also arguing Cleveland did not put him in the right situation.
  • The Browns drafted Manziel 22nd overall in 2014, and he was released in early 2016 after off-field issues and substance problems during two turbulent seasons.
  • Coverage of his remarks revisited his post-NFL struggles, including his disclosure in a 2023 Netflix documentary that he contemplated taking his own life.
  • Manziel has shifted to media and reality TV work and is slated to appear on Fox’s Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test.
