According to Bouncer Chronicles even close friends to Johnny Manziel are worried that he is out of control. They fear the Heisman Trophy winner could wind up dead if he doesn't get the help he needs for his ongoing substance abuse problem.

According to TMZ Sports a person close to Manziel's inner-circle said "If he continues this way for much longer he will die. He's in a horrible downward spiral." Some of his friends tried to have an intervention with Manziel but he flipped out and wouldn't listen.
