BEREA, Ohio -- Mike Pettine took a strong and significant step when he made Johnny Manziel the Cleveland Browns' third-team quarterback on Tuesday.
The Browns coach not only took the starting job from Manziel, he put Austin Davis ahead of him on the depth chart.
In one week, Manziel went from starter to third team without taking a snap.
He also went from staring at the opportunity to seize the starting job heading into 2016 to possibly being inactive for Monday night's tilt with the Ravens (depending on how the roster is broken down).
