Johnny Manziel’s agent Erik Burkhardt has funny message for Merrill Hoge

Johnny Manziel had a nice game for the Cleveland Browns in a win over the Tennessee Titans on Sunday, and his agent was sure to remind Merrill Hoge about it.

Manziel’s agent, Erik Burkhardt, sent the ESPN analyst an emoji over Twitter that featured a winking face giving a kiss:

Manziel was only 8/15 for 172 yards and two touchdowns, but the scores were big ones. He threw a 60-yard touchdown pass to Travis Benjamin to put Cleveland up 7-0, and then he put the game out of reach with a 50-yard TD pass to Benjamin to make it 28-14 late in the fourth quarter.

The stats weren’t sparkling, but the result was what the Browns wanted and needed. And that tweet from Burkhardt was a better comeback to Hoge than the one Manziel offered during the week.
