Johnny Manziel, who will sit out the Cleveland Browns’ regular season finale Sunday due to a concussion, was seen Saturday dining and gambling at Las Vegas’ Planet Hollywood casino, according to employees and patrons who interacted with the embattled quarterback.
Manziel also sat down at a blackjack table and a casino employee examining his photo ID exclaimed, “We’ve got Johnny Manziel with us tonight,” according to John Hornacek, a 43-year-old casino patron who witnessed the exchange
After the report, Manziel posted a picture to Instagram with his location tagged to Avon,Ohio to refute the story,

Even after Manziel’s denial, Boeck is sticking to his story.

I wouldn’t put it past Manziel to lie and cover-up his tracks since he tried to that just a few weeks ago. but seriously people need to chill out about Johnny Manziel. When people see Odell Beckham having a dance-off with strippers a night before a game while being suspended no one bats an eye. But when Johnny Football just sits at a blackjack table it’s fucking code red.
While I understand Manziel has done some dumb stuff in the past, there’s really no reason he should be held in a higher standard than the other 20-year-old millionaires in the league.
