Report: Johnny Manziel to start Browns' final four games
By Larry Brown.
Johnny Manziel punishment by the Cleveland Browns may finally be coming to an end.
Two weeks after being demoted to third string and then passed over as the starter in Week 13, Manziel may be back to starting in Cleveland.
Manziel started consecutive games for the Browns prior to the team’s bye week, but then he was demoted to third string after reportedly lying to the coaches about partying during the bye. Josh McCown broke his collarbone against the Browns last week and was replaced by Austin Davis, who put the team in position to win the game. Davis was given the start Sunday against the Bengals, but he had pathetic results as the team lost 37-3.
This report is not that surprising given that previous information stated Manziel could get the starting job back in Week 14 — and that was before Davis went out and put up a stinker against Cincinnati.
Hearing #Browns will give next 4 games to QB Johnny Manziel. Pettine will announce Monday. Nothing official. We'll see.
