Documentary Reveals How Little Film Johnny Manziel Watched in NFL

As any astute football fan is keenly aware, a successful quarterback is not only a player who puts forth supreme effort on the practice field but also one who invests time in the film room.

Understanding the playbook is vital, and recognizing defensive formations is fundamental to finding favorable matchups and leading your offensive unit to pay dirt.

So it was rather shocking to hear former Heisman Trophy winner Johnny Manziel admit during the Netflix documentary UNTOLD: Johnny Football that he watched “zero film” during his career in the NFL.

Zero.

Following stardom on the collegiate gridiron, the former Browns disappointment jokingly disclosed the outrageous revelation.

Many fans pondered why the former Texas A&M standout struggled so immensely in the NFL—lasting just two seasons.

Manziel’s rise to stardom and subsequent demise is well illustrated via the documentary, which surprisingly reveals his lack of commitment to work on his craft at the professional level.
