Johnny Manziel set up a website to sell merchandise as a means of capitalizing on his comeback bid, and apparently people ate up his products like crazy.
On Saturday, less than 48 hours after Manziel launched that site to sell his wares, he announced his entire stock had sold out.
You guys are incredible I can’t thank you enough for all the support. We’ve almost sold out of everything in under 48 hours. Beyond my wildest imagination…I’m shocked pic.twitter.com/d4zUuDJV7h

That’s pretty stunning. Apparently, there are still a ton of Manziel supporters out there. What really caught this scribe’s eye is that one of the clients interested in Manziel’s products was none other than former Cleveland Browns teammate Joe Thomas.
Hey @JManziel2! What do I have to do to get one of these hats signed? @Hawk #ThomaHawk pic.twitter.com/RHUmDlnTKR

This is significant because Thomas recently had some harsh things to say about Manziel, who he believes contributed largely to Cleveland’s continued failure.
Manziel has a potential opportunity in the Canadian Football League this year. He’s vowed to play professionally in 2018, and we’ll be very curious to see how he performs, wherever that may be.
