Even if the latest rumor about Johnny Manziel's whereabouts is not true, the fact that it's conceivable is almost enough to keep the quarterback out of the league next season.
Manziel entered a popular Las Vegas nightclub, wearing a blond wig, a fake mustache, glasses and a hoodie and referred to himself by another name, according to ESPN Radio Las Vegas' Facebook page.

"Manziel introduced himself as 'Billy,'" the Facebook post reads. "He was there into the 3am hour and when it came time to pay the bill, he asked to have it comped because he didn't bring cash and also didn't want to put it on his card.
"However, the sources tell us he ended up paying with his card and signing the check.
"By 3am he appeared to be enjoying the party scene that Vegas is known to offer."

Manziel's girlfriend, Colleen Crowley, was to have spent the weekend in Las Vegas, according to an Instagram post by one of her friends, Larry Brown Sports reported.
That information goes along with a previous USA Today report that said various people, including a USA Today editor, verified Manziel being in Vegas a day before the Browns' regular-season finale against Pittsburgh.
Sports Illustrated's Peter King reported that Manziel was supposed to be at the Browns' facility at 9 a.m. Sunday morning to be examined by a team doctor but never showed up, and the Browns couldn't get a hold of him by phone.
Whether Manziel wore his ridiculous disguise at the Vegas nightclub is almost beside the point, but the fact that it's plausible will make it difficult for the former Heisman Trophy winner to find work next season.
It's fairly evident the quarterback was in Nevada and not Avon, Ohio, which he listed as his location on an Instagram photo alibi of him and his dog.
Manziel appears to be caught in a second lie in just more than two months, and his cover-up attempts are laughable. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones may be interested, but he already had a circus atmosphere with Greg Hardy that helped contribute to the team's 4-12 record in 2015.
Does Jones dare risk another media feeding frenzy?
The fact that Manziel couldn't wait two extra days to go party in Vegas should be a considerable red flag to any team wondering about his services if and when the Browns release him.
