BRIEF: Johnny Manziel is dropped by another agent

April 19--For the second time this off-season, Johnny Manziel is without an agent.

Last week, Drew Rosenhaus said he would drop the former Cleveland Browns quarterback if he didn't take specific steps to turn his life around within five days. On Tuesday, Rosenhaus did just that, according to multiple media reports.

Manziel spent at least part of the weekend at Coachella.

On Friday, Rosenhaus didn't seem optimistic that his then-client was taking the necessary steps to retain his services.

"Unfortunately, there hasn't been any movement toward getting help or seeking treatment that I'm aware of," Rosenhaus said on "PFT Live." "I'm trying diligently to recommend this to Johnny. I'm not the first one, certainly not the only one. There are a lot of friends and family and people that want the best for this young man. He's got a plan, it's just different than the one he and I talked about and what I would recommend to him."

Back in February, Manziel was dropped by agent Erik Burkhardt, who also said he hoped the former Heisman Trophy winner would get help. The following month, Manziel was cut by the Browns, who had drafted him in the first round of the 2014 draft.
