The Facts: A Texas grand jury has indicted Manziel on an assault charge after his ex-girlfriend accused him of domestic violence. The Heisman Trophy winner and former Texas A&M star was indicted Tuesday on a charge of misdemeanor assault related to family violence. The Class A misdemeanor carries up to one year in jail and a $4,000 fine.

Diehards Line: Manziel's ex-girlfriend, Colleen Crowley, told Dallas police that Manziel repeatedly hit her and threatened to kill her during a night out on Jan. 30. Crowley alleged that Manziel accosted her several times at a Dallas hotel and later struck her when they drove back to her apartment in Fort Worth. In a statement released Tuesday, Manziel's attorney said that his client will plead not guilty. "Johnny will certainly plead 'not guilty' and we believe the evidence will support that plea," Jim Darnell, lead counsel for Manziel, said. "Out of respect for Ms. Crowley, we will not try the case in the press. We do, however, believe that Johnny will be acquitted at the conclusion of the case." The Cleveland Browns cut Manziel in March, and two agents and all of his endorsers have dropped him.
