Cleveland Browns quarterback Johnny Manziel was harassed by a fan at the AT&T Byron Nelson golf tournament.

Manziel’s agent, Erik Burkhardt, told Mary Kay Cabot of Cleveland.com on Sunday that Manziel responded to the fan’s harassment on Saturday by alerting security officials at the PGA event in Irving, Texas.

The 22-year-old Manziel, a Texas native, was photographed talking to police outside the Four Seasons hotel on Saturday, and the photos began circulating Sunday morning on social media.

Burkhardt told Northeast Ohio Media Group that he and Manziel were attending church in Dallas on Sunday morning.

Irving police spokesman James McLellan told Northeast Ohio Media Group that an 18-year-old male fan began harassing Manziel near the Four Seasons’ pool. Manziel eventually threw a water bottle at the fan, escalating the confrontation, but one of Manziel’s friends stepped in to intervene on his behalf and hotel security also got involved, McLellan said.

Police were called and officers spoke to both parties. Neither decided to press charges. Police did not detect any sign of intoxication with Manziel, McLellan said.

Manziel was discharged from an addiction treatment center on April 11 after being in rehab for 10 weeks. He has been participating in the Browns’ offseason program, including organized team activities last week.
