Johnny Manziel has earned his reputation as a party-goer, and he certainly added to it on New Year's Eve, when he was spotted hitting the town with New York Giants wide receiver Victor Cruz. The two were seen at a bar with some female companions while they rang in the new year.

According to NJ.com, Manziel wanted to get in one last night of partying in 2014. He may have just wanted to get it out of his system, as he has stated that he wants to be more professional next year in order to improve on his performance from this season.
Manziel lost the quarterback competition to Brian Hoyer during training camp, although he was eventually given the starting role late in the season after the Browns were eliminated from playoff contention.. During his time on the field, Manziel often looked overwhelmed, and he exhibited poor decision making in addition to missing open receivers with his throws.

Some in the media think that Manziel's penchant for enjoying nightlife is part of his problem. ESPN's Skip Bayless has said that he believes that Manziel is an alcoholic and should seek help for the disease.
Manziel was late to a team meeting last week after staying out late at the bars the previous night. His lack of sleep led to him oversleeping, which resulted in his tardiness.
The players are supposedly still in support of Manziel and want him to be the starter next season. However, he will need to exhibit a good deal more maturity and prove that he is willing to put in the work that is required in order to be a legitimate starting quarterback in the NFL.
