As if a quarterback going to Las Vegas the day before the final game of the NFL season isn’t strange enough, the latest details of Johnny Manziel‘s reported gambling trip sound like something out of a bad movie.
The quarterback reportedly wore a blonde wig, sunglasses, a fake mustache and a hoodie during his time in Vegas. He also introduced himself as Billy, according to ESPN Las Vegas radio host Mitch Moss.
While there are still no photographs of Manziel in Las Vegas, there may be a plausible explanation. Moss states that the quarterback’s table at the nightclub he reportedly visited was placed in a dark corner of the VIP section, which could have made seeing him difficult if not impossible.
That, combined with the report that he even remained in disguise in the club’s restaurant and the fact that most casinos don’t allow photography in gambling areas, could create a scenario where no one snapped a picture.

Regardless of what actually happened, Manziel is most likely done in Cleveland thanks to his off-field behavior and lack of on-field performance; he was back in the team facility for the team’s breakup day.
