Former NFL quarterback Johnny Manziel’s mother Michelle was arrested for driving while intoxicated in Texas on Saturday night, it has been revealed.
TMZ Sports first broke the news of Michelle’s arrest – which occurred 65 miles northwest of San Antonio in the town of Kerrville – on Sunday afternoon.
She was reportedly held on a $7,500 bail before being released from custody when it was paid in full.
DailyMail.com has reached out to the Kerrville Police Department for more information.
According to her LinkedIn profile, Michelle has worked as a realtor for CT Realty – a real estate agency based in Kerrville – for the last seven years.
The Manziels have lived in Kerrville, the town where Johnny attended Tivy High School before committing to Texas A&M, for a number of years.
Johnny was one of the hottest 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.
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 report added, however, that Manziel ‘had some work to do on himself’.
The news was surprising given that the couple shared a steamy video of them both in a bathtub as recently as December.
