Manziel To Retire Money Sign Gesture

Cleveland Browns Quarterback says there will no more of this famous celebratory gesture

After watching their Cavaliers lose in the NBA Finals, Cleveland fans are now hoping that the Indians or Browns may be able to end the 50 plus year drought for a sports championship in their city. The Browns may end up having a successful season but don't hope for a Manziel money after any big plays. That's at least what the Heisman trophy winning quarterback told reporters today. Manziel, a first round draft pick in the 2014 NFL Draft, said that "The money sign will not be back"

The loss of the money sign seems to be another step in the maturity of the second year quarterback. Following the 2014 season, team officials said that Manziel had checked himself into a rehab facility for a 10 week program. One of the most popular football players in college football the past decade, Manziel seems to be trying to do his best to remove himself from the past "Johnny Football" persona. Manziel said today "I think at times Johnny Football probably took over me a little bit and I bought into that". The Browns open their season on the road September 13th against the New York Jets
