CLEVELAND - Johnny Manziel has sought help to change his off-field lifestyle. Wendell Smallwood Jersey .Following a rough rookie season in the NFL, Manziel has entered a treatment program for unspecified reasons, an adviser for the Browns quarterback said in a statement released by the team on Monday.Johnny knows there are areas he needs to improve on to help him be a better family member, friend and teammate, so he decided to take this step in his life during the off-season, Manziel adviser Brad Beckworth said. Beckworth said the former Heisman Trophy winner entered the unnamed facility last week. He said Manziels family is asking for privacy until he rejoins the team.Beckworths statement did not indicate reasons for Manziel needing treatment. However, the 22-year-old QBs penchant for partying followed him from college into the pros and Manziels nightlife has been well-chronicled by both social and mainstream media.The location of the facility where Manziel is staying is not immediately known.Browns general manager Ray Farmer said in a statement that the team fully supports Manziel and respects his initiative in entering treatment. The team will respect Manziels privacy during treatment, he said.Our players health and well-being will always be of the utmost importance to the Cleveland Browns, Farmer said. We continually strive to create a supportive environment and provide the appropriate resources, with our foremost focus being on the individual and not just the football player.Citing privacy laws, a Browns spokesman declined to provide any further information about Manziels situation.Browns wide receiver Andrew Hawkins offered his support to Manziel on Twitter.Much love and support to my brother Johnny, Hawkins wrote. Proud of him, big step. Football is secondary. God Bless!NBA superstar LeBron James, who is both a friend and business partner of Manziels, also expressed his support for the young QB.I havent talked to him, James said after the Cavaliers won their 11th straight game. As a friend I support him. I want him to get better. As friends and family we all believe in him and this is a good step if this is the route hes going to take.Manziel, who won the Heisman as a freshman at Texas A&M where his playmaking skills earned him his Johnny Football nickname, has faced questions for several years about his active nightlife. After he was drafted in May by the Browns in the first round, Manziel was repeatedly photographed drinking alcohol during weekend trips to Las Vegas. A photograph of Manziel floating on an inflatable swan raft swigging a bottle of champagne went viral.The Browns became increasingly concerned about Manziel when a photo surfaced of Manziel holding a rolled bill in a bathroom.Manziel often dismissed criticism about his behaviour, insisting he wasnt going to let others dictate to him how to live his life. However, following the season, Manziel seemed embarrassed by some of his choices and vowed to change his ways.Its about actions, he somberly told reporters on Dec. 29. Its about being accountable and doing what Im going to say. ... Im either going to learn or Im going to be finding something else to do.Manziels alma mater released a statement offering its support, stating Johnny will always be an Aggie, and we wish him well in another step in his journey.Manziel spent the majority of last season as starter Brian Hoyers backup before coach Mike Pettine switched their roles with the team still in the playoff hunt.Manziel made his first start on Dec. 14 against Cincinnati, but failed miserably. He appeared unprepared and overmatched as the Bengals defence harassed him into two interceptions and the Browns were throttled 30-0. Manziel completed 10 of 18 passes for 80 yards, was sacked twice and looked nothing like a player capable of ending Clevelands long search to find a franchise quarterback.The next week at Carolina, Manziel injured his hamstring on a running play before halftime and was replaced by Hoyer.Manziel was then fined by the Browns for missing a medical treatment before the season finale at Baltimore. Manziel promised he would change following the season, apologizing to Clevelands fans and his teammates for being a distraction.But hours after apologizing, he was photographed in Miami Beach and over the next few days there were photos of him on Instagram in a Houston nightclub and in Aspen, Colorado.The Browns have made it clear to Manziel that they expect more from him if he wants to be their leader.Johnny has to show on and off the field he can be a professional, owner Jimmy Haslam said on Jan. 22. He knows that. Everybody in the organization has told him that. He knows what we expect of him on and off the field and its up to him to prove he can do that.Manziels uncertain future could influence the Browns plans at quarterback. Hoyer is scheduled to become a free agent, but the Cleveland native may be willing to re-sign with Cleveland, especially if Manziel is not in the picture. The Browns also have two first-round picks (Nos. 12 and 19) in this years draft and may be willing to use them to land a quarterback.___AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL Brandon Graham Jersey . This is an exercise I have undertaken a few times, starting in 2009, and hope that Ive refined my approach a little bit in that time to help paint a better picture. Golden Tate III Jersey .

Manager Greg Vanney says he is adding a coach who was one of his mentors when it came to defending. "Obviously we have a lot of young defenders who are talented but they need to progress," Vanney said after practice Wednesday. "Hopefully hell be in Sunday or Monday of next week "Hell really really start to push on our defensive group. But hes also been around the game long enough that he understands both sides of the ball. But I really want us to shore up our defensive backline. And then I think we have the quality in attack where we can make a difference." He declined to identify the coach until everything was finalized. Vanney also had good news on the Jermain Defoe front, saying the injured striker could be back in town earlier than the original Sept. 20 date to continue his rehab from a groin injury. There is no word on when Defoe, who is currently in England, might return to action, however. The 31-year-old striker has missed nine games this season (eight through injury and one by suspension) but still leads Toronto in scoring with 11 goals. Toronto (9-11-6) hopes to end a three-game losing and goalless streak when it visits the Chicago Fire (5-7-14) on Saturday. Toronto has won just three of its last 15 games (3-7-5) and fell from fourth to seventh last weekend in the Eastern Conference standings. The top five make the playoffs. Going into play Wednesday, Toronto ranked 14th in the league in goals-against (1.62 per game). Injuries, suspension and laack of depth have cost the team in defence with centre back Steven Caldwell and fullbacks Justin Morrow and Mark Bloom missing 21 games between them. Jake Elliott Jersey. That has forced others to play out of position and put youngsters Doneil Henry and Nick Hagglund in the firing line. Torontos training room is beginning to empty -- the team has lost players to injury for a combined 82 games this season -- but still has work to do. Caldwell (quad) is progressing but still "very questionable" for the weekend, Vanney said. Midfielder Jonathan Osorio (leg muscle) was described as day to day. Defender-midfielder Bradley Orr (toe) did not take part in practice with the main squad Wednesday but is expected to be available this weekend. Vanney said the team is looking at shifting fullback Justin Morrow to centre back with Caldwell and Bradley Orr both nursing injuries. "Its definitely something that weve talked about," said Vanney. "Its not his natural position but obviously hes done it in the past a little bit. Its definitely something thats crossed our mind and we thought about it. I cant say weve made a decision either way but its definitely an option." In the part of practice open to reporters Wednesday, Bloom and Warren Creavalle played fullback in an attacking drill. As for adding a new player, Vanney said "if its the right fit were definitely looking. But nothings been determined yet." With the international transfer window closed, Toronto would have to acquire new talent via an MLS trade or look for a player out of contract.
