N.F.L. Roundup: Browns’ Johnny Manziel Avoids Charges After Dispute With Girlfriend

Cleveland Browns quarterback Johnny Manziel was involved in a dispute with his girlfriend this week that the police said involved alcohol.

Manziel was pulled over by the police in Avon, Ohio, after a witness said a person was trying to jump from his speeding vehicle. Manziel admitted having consumed alcohol before the incident. According to the police, Manziel was not charged, and his girlfriend, Colleen Crowley, said she did not want to press charges.

Manziel, who was drafted by the Browns in the first round in 2014, spent 70 days in a Pennsylvania rehabilitation clinic earlier this year for an unspecified condition.
