NFL

American former NFL player Johnny Manziel is dating Josie Canseco, an internet personality and model. The former football quarterback was once married to Bre Tiesi but had a bitter divorce. Here’s everything about Johnny’s current relationship and past marriage.

As soon as Johnny and his new partner, Josie, confirmed their relationship via Instagram story, his fans and followers got smitten with his new love life.

Previously, he and his then-wife, Bre Tiesi, had a dramatic separation in 2021 after three years of marriage. After that, the former NFL player tried to find love and dated a few women. With his dating story with Canseco, fans hope to see the duo ring the wedding bells- well, that is for the time to tell.

The 2012 Heisman Trophy winner was a dual-threat quarterback. A product of Tivy High School, he enrolled at the Texas A&M Aggies (2011-13), where he played collegiate football under Mike Sherman and Kevin Sumlin, the head coaches.

There, he set records: the first freshman and fifth player in NCAA history to pass for 3,000 yards and rush for 1,000 yards in a season. Also, he led the Aggies to the 2013 Cotton Bowl Classic victory.

Manziel was the Cleveland Browns’ first-round (22nd overall) pick in the 2014 NFL draft, the same draft year as De’Anthony Thomas and Dri Archer.

Later in the future, the team hosted NFL players like Dorian Thompson-Robinson, Demetric Felton, and Kareem Hunt.

However, after two seasons (2014 & 2015 season) with the Browns, they waived him in the wake of his domestic violence incident with his ex-girlfriend.

Later, he joined and played for CFL teams: Hamilton Tiger-Cats (2018), Montreal Alouettes (2018), AAF’s Memphis Express (2019), and FCF Zappers (2021–2022).
