Silver Stands by Report on Manziel Being Drunk at Practice; Regrets Saying Browns ‘Lied’

After a report earlier today that the Browns ‘lied’ about the situation regarding quarterback Johnny Manziel that the team covered up him showing up drunk for practice, Mike Silver of NFL.com and the NFL Network is standing by his story.

The veteran NFL journalist did state he wishes he would have never said the Browns ‘lied’ but does say he does stand by the report that the QB was intoxicated.

“I’ve been told by multiple sources that Manziel showed up late to the team facility for a meeting & noticeably drunk on Wednesday, Dec. 30,” Silver wrote today.
