NFL Notes: Johnny Manziel, Cowboys, Seahawks

Johnny Manziel

According to Joe Pagonakis of Newnet5 Cleveland, QB Johnny Manziel was pulled over by police officers on Monday forย a domestic argument between him and his girlfriend.

The officer determined that neither of the two were intoxicated enough toย where they could be charged, butย alcohol was involved in the incident.

Manziel’s girlfriend said heย pushed her head into a window. According to the report, she wasย concerned about her safety and wanted to use her cellphone.

Police did noticeย an abrasion on Crowley’s arm, but it wasย determined that the abrasion was from Manziel’s attempting to keep her from getting out of the vehicle while it was on the road.

Manziel said via his Twitter account that once police realized that he was sober and that everything “was alright“, they allowed the couple to leaveย the scene and return home.

Manziel reportedly told the officer that he hadย two alcoholic drinks several hours before being pulled over.

Browns GM Ray Farmer said in a statement that the team is โ€œaware of the situationโ€ and has โ€œexpressedโ€ their concerns to him directly.

Manzielย will not faceย any domestic charges or penaltiesย forย driving under the influence, and will be active for Week 6.
