Johnny Manziel & Josh Gordon on the NFL's Drug Testing Policy, What Ifs, and Flash's Epic 2013 SZN

Описание: Johnny Manziel and Josh Gordon finally sit down for the conversation fans have waited years to hear. On this episode of Glory Daze, the former Browns teammates look back at their time in Cleveland — the electric moments, the chaos behind the scenes, and the bond they built while navigating a franchise constantly in flux.

Josh talks about how his rise in Cleveland played a real role in the Browns drafting Johnny, and how their careers became linked from day one. They dive into their shared experiences as two of the most watched young players in the league, the day-to-day reality of the NFL drug-testing world, and how much pressure came with trying to live up to massive expectations on and off the field.

Josh opens up about joining the Patriots, catching passes from Tom Brady, and what it was like having Bill Belichick keeping close tabs on him everywhere he went. Johnny gets him to walk through the moments fans never saw — the meetings, the conversations, and the plays that still stick with him years later.

Johnny also shifts the conversation to today’s college football landscape, how NIL would’ve changed everything for him, and even tells stories about partying with Diego Pavia — now lighting it up at Vanderbilt — as the two compare eras and how the game keeps evolving.
