Former Cleveland Browns quarterback Johnny Manziel was told Thursday by a judge in Dallas County Criminal Court to have no contact whatsoever with former girlfriend Colleen Crowley.

Judge Roberto Canas on Thursday took no more than 15 minutes to explain the conditions for Manziel's release on $1,500 bond. In addition, Canas said Manziel could have no contact -- no calls, texts, emails, letters or visits -- with Crowley.

It was Manziel's first court appearance in relation to a misdemeanor charge stemming from a domestic violence complaint by Crowley.

Manziel on Thursday also had to sign an affidavit confirming he doesn't own any firearms and that there aren't any firearms where he lives.
