The career of Heisman trophy winner and Texas A&M all-star quarterback, Johnny Manziel, continues in a downward spiral since being relegated to the third string for the Cleveland Browns at the end of this last season. Despite his promising talent, his history of alcohol abuse and videos of his raucous partying in Texas on a bye week have plagued his progress and tarnished his legacy. This past week, however, Manziel was charged with assaulting his former girlfriend, Colleen Crowley, outside of a night club near Dallas, Texas.\u00a0 Manziel\u2019s girlfriend alleges on an affidavit that while fearing for her life, Manziel forced her into a car.\u00a0 After Crowley jumped out of the car she alleges that Manziel, \u201chit me with his open hand on my left ear .\u00a0. \u00a0. I realized immediately that I could not hear out of the ear, and I cannot [hear] today [Feb. 3].\u201d\u00a0 Crowley\u2019s attorney claims his client\u2019s eardrum was ruptured.\u00a0 While criminal charges are pending against Manziel, Crowley was granted a restraining order against Manziel for two years.<\/p>\n
