Unemployed NFL quarterback Johnny Manziel said over the weekend that he's living in Los Angeles with Broncos linebacker and fellow Texas A&M alum Von Miller. Turns out, Manziel is not to be trusted, at least according to sources that told ESPN that the former Browns first-round pick is actually living with former Browns wide receiver Josh Gordon in an apartment off Sunset Boulevard.
The only way this gets better (or worse, depending on whether you enjoy slow-motion train wrecks) is if Tim Tebow moves in and we find out what happens when people stop being polite and start getting real.
Living arrangements aside, Miller -- who also confirms that Manziel isn't a roommate -- continues to support the former Heisman Trophy winner and thinks he'd make a great addition to Denver's roster.

"If I had to make my decision on it, he would already be on the Broncos," Miller said Friday. "But we've got guys in the front office that make those decisions, and they put us in championships with those decisions. So I'm just going to follow those guys and have those guys take the lead."
Meanwhile, Gordon has been suspended since February of 2015 for violating the league's substance-abuse policy, though he hopes to find out in the coming weeks if he'll be reinstated for the 2016 season.
Manziel said in December that he was excited to play with Gordon in Cleveland in '16, but that isn't happening even if Gordon rejoins the team; the Browns dumped Manziel last month. Silver lining: They'll dominate the flag football games in the park near their apartment.
As for Manziel's NFL future, he says, "Whatever happens, I love ball. I want to play." And last week, after TMZ spotted him leaving a club, he said, “I'm not really partying. ... I'm just out with some buddies. No drinking."
Which should leave time for more UFC events.
