Watch: Johnny Manziel Takes Scary Fall Off Cliff During Arizona Vacation

Former Heisman winner and college football sensation Johnny Manziel is truly taking advantage of post-football life during these times. 

The former Browns QB took a pretty scary stumble off a cliff in the Arizona lake this week, while he was trying to make the leap down into the water. 

Manziel posted a short video to Instagram capturing the moment, captioning “Flawless execution.”

The former gunslinger obviously hasn’t worked too much on his footwork, considering he hasn’t played a snap since his unsuccessful go at the Alliance of American Football league last year. 

A few months ago, Manziel tweeted about his situation, saying he would be just fine if he never played football again. 

“If I never pick up a ball again it’s all love,” he said. “I was the most lit, most relatable college football player to ever do it. Did things my way and made it way further than I ever could of imagined. The game gave me life and I’ll forever be grateful.”

Manziel also added that he was the “best I’ve been in a long time” and said he was focusing on golf during his Arizona trip. 

Manziel also had a run in the Canadian Football League a few years back that proved just as unsuccessful. 

In 2013, the former Texas A&M point-man was drafted in the first round. He went on to play just 15 games total, recording 1,675 passing yards with seven touchdowns.
