Johnny Manziel Involved in Hit-and-Run Car Accident

Free-agent quarterback Johnny Manziel reported to Dallas police that he was involved in a hit-and-run accident Monday night, per the Associated Press. 

Denise Michaels, Manziel's publicist, confirmed the 23-year-old hit his head during the crash but didn't suffer a major injury.

"Johnny told me his car was T-boned and the driver just rode away right after," Michaels said in an interview with TMZ Sports. "He reported it to police."

TMZ Sports also posted a photo of the damage to Manziel's car:

The Cleveland Browns released the former Heisman Trophy winner in March after he spent two years with the team. On June 9, Manziel's lawyer told ESPN.com's Jeremy Fowler that he is working to get back in the NFL ahead of the 2016 season. Another source told Fowler a 2017 return is more likely.

In the event a team does sign Manziel, he could still have to wait to take the field again. A Texas grand jury indicted him on a misdemeanor assault charge in April. Manziel's then-girlfriend accused him of grabbing her by the hair and striking her on Jan. 30.

ESPN.com's Pat McManamon reported in February the NFL was investigating the incident, and TMZ Sports reported in May the league was looking into an April car accident in Los Angeles in which Manziel was a passenger. At the time, NFL sources told TMZ Sports that the inquiry was part of a "larger Manziel investigation which is ongoing."
