BEREA, Ohio -- Like reading a blitz, Johnny Manziel knew the questions about his off-field wildness were coming. Robinson Chirinos Jersey . So the Browns quarterback struck first. "At the end of the day," Manziel said, "Ive made some rookie mistakes." On the eve of Clevelands first training camp practice, Manziel offered some regret about his well-chronicled weekend partying over the past two months.

"Theres some things that I wish I couldve gone back and done a little differently," Manziel said.

"I think theres other guys throughout the league that are doing that and Im not trying to compare myself to anybody else but I think thats within my rights to be doing that." Manziel doesnt think his busy social calendar will hurt his chances to beat out Hoyer. "I dont believe so," he said. "I think there are definitely things moving forward to help better act as a professional. At the same time, Im still learning how to do that. Im still getting used to this role, still getting used to this league, still getting used to being a pro football player. "Im not in college anymore. Theres things I need to do better, and thats just part of being a professional. Hopefully with time and going through this season and as time goes on, Ill get better at doing that."
