Browns rookie quarterback Johnny Manziel has managed to stay out of trouble after a rocky offseason that featured inflatable swans, champagne showers, and rolled-up dollar bills. Even as he has languished on the bench, Manziel has behaved.
The tranquility surrounding Johnny Football may have been disrupted recently, based on a report from ClevelandScene.com. Per the report, a police report accuses Manziel’s entourage of assault.
33-year-old Chris Gonos reportedly approached Manziel at an upscale apartment complex known as “The 9" in Cleveland on Friday night, gushing over Manziel and requesting a hug. Instead of a hug, Gonos got a punch in the face, along with other alleged physical indignities.
The general manager of “The 9" declined comment to ClevelandScene.com. The Browns have not yet addressed the issue.
The blows apparently were delivered not by Manziel but by someone who described Manziel as his “client,” claiming that the alleged victim attempted to assault Manziel.
