Johnny Manziel's second agent this offseason, Drew Rosenhaus, informed the former Cleveland Browns quarterback that he needs to either get treatment or Rosenhaus will no longer represent him, ESPN reported on Wednesday.

"I have terminated the standard representation with Johnny Manziel in the hopes of helping him get the treatment I believe he needs," Rosenhaus said according to ESPN's report.

ESPN reported sources saying Rosenhaus has never fired a player in 27 years as an NFL agent.

According to ESPN, Manziel spent 10 weeks in rehab after his rookie season and is the subject of a grand jury investigation in Dallas into whether he assaulted his former girlfriend. The NFL is investigating whether Manziel violated the personal conduct policy in that incident.
