Johnny Manziel took to Twitter Thursday to say he is trying to become a better person, thanking those who helped him through a “rough” 2016.
Haven't been this happy in a long time man. I appreciate all the people in my life who reached out during the truly rough patches in '16

The Heisman winner and former Cleveland Brown was suspended for the first four games of the 2016 season for violating the NFL’s substance-abuse policy. He also faced possible additional suspension as the NFL investigated whether he violated its personal conduct policy.
The Browns, who also had a rough 2016, released Manziel in March.
Manziel is working on a comeback to the NFL after his quick fall from grace that included clubbing, partying and domestic violence charges.
Have to LIVE these words not just TWEET them ✌🏼
