Johnny Manziel was demoted by the Cleveland Browns to third string this week in part because he lied about when the video of him partying took place.
After the video of him partying during the bye week took place, Manziel tried to sell the public on the notion that the video was old. A DJ even told a media member it was old.

Apparently Manziel wasn’t just trying to use that excuse on the public; FOX’s Jay Glazer says he used that excuse with the Browns, too.
