Shock new details emerge about Johnny Manziel’s mom’s DWI arrest

Shock new details emerge about Johnny Manziel's mom's DWI arrest

More details have been revealed in the aftermath of the mother of former college football star and NFL quarterback Johnny Manziel being arrested for driving while intoxicated in Texas earlier this month.

Michelle Manziel was pulled over by police in the town of Kerrville – located northwest of San Antonio – for driving with a faulty tail light, according to TMZ Sports.

In the midst of a traffic stop, Michelle appeared to show signs of intoxication – with bloodsH๏τ and glᴀssy eyes while having unsteady balance.

Police have also claimed that she had a strong odor of alcohol coming off of her breath.

Additionally, according to the reporting, Manziel refused to take a breathalyzer test – leading to those responding enforcing another kind of field sobriety ᴀssessment.

When authorities administered a horizontal gaze nystagmus check (a test which determines if a person’s eyes are involuntarily jerking), police say she showed six clues of inebriation.

Michelle, 55, was taken to a nearby jail and charged with driving while intoxicated and has since been released on $7,500 bail.  Her attorneys did not respond to a request for comment from TMZ.

According to her Instagram, Michelle is a Realtor for CT Realty at Comanche Trace, which is based in Kerrville. She was posting housing listings in Central Texas on her page on Tuesday morning. 

The Manziel family has lived in Kerrville for a long time, as Johnny was a football star at Tivy High School before playing for Texas A&M as one of the highest-profile recruits in the country in the Class of 2011. 

Johnny Manziel skyrocketed to fame in 2012 as the first freshman to win the Heisman Trophy, given annually to the best player in college football. 

Johnny was one of the H๏τtest college prospects of all-time when he left Texas A&M and was drafted by the Cleveland Browns in 2014, but his time with the franchise was overshadowed by a series of off-field controversies. 

He was released at the end of 2016 in the wake of domestic violence incidents, alcohol-fueled all-nighters and lying to the team over bye-week parties.

In August 2023, Manziel also spoke out on a suicide attempt as part of a Netflix series about his life. 

The 32-year-old is now a business owner and a podcast host, and regularly tells stories of his bad boy past now that he has cleaned up his act. 

Michelle, who according to her Insta account is a realtor, has been released on $7,500 bond

Last month it was revealed that Manziel had split with girlfriend Josie Canseco after almost a year together.

The break-up, which was first reported by TMZ , was said to be an amicable one with no bad blood between the two. 

The news was surprising given that the couple shared a steamy video of them both in a bathtub as recently as December.

The report added, however, that Manziel ‘had some work to do on himself’.
