Johnny Manziel to Reach out to Jameis Winston, Wants to Offer Advice

No one knows what it's like to be in the college limelight more than Cleveland Browns quarterback Johnny Manziel. From his frequent trips to Vegas to drinking champagne on an inflatable swan, his life off the field has been well-documented.

Florida State QB Jameis Winston is the current collegiate poster boy for what not to do. He's already been reprimanded for shoplifting crab legs and screaming obscenities.

NFL teams are growing wary of drafting the 6'4", 230-pound prospect.

According to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler, Manziel plans to reach out to Winston to offer some advice: 

"

Jameis is a guy I've had a good relationship with and want to help him in as many ways as I can. For him right now, just try to let as much time pass by to try to let some of these things blow over and worry about the position [the Seminoles] are in as the best team in the country and worry about football in the ACC. ... Everything else will be OK. He's continuing to grow up. He's a young guy, too. Really, I think he'll figure it out.

"

Manziel, who won the Heisman in 2012, knows taking the trophy home just adds to the pressure:

"

The burden of following a Heisman bid is 'heavier than the trophy.'

There's a lot of responsibility, a lot of scrutiny now over the past two years ... the last 2-5 years. That's going to come with it. It's a lot of weight to have on your shoulders. But that's part of what comes with winning the trophy.
