Former Texas A&M quarterback Johnny Manziel wants to reach out to Florida State quarterback Jameis Winston to offer encouragement, according to AP reporter Tom Withers. Manziel knows first-hand what it feels like to be under constant scrutiny from the media.

Manziel, like Winston, won the Heisman Trophy as a freshman. Following the season, Manziel's every move was documented by the media, from partying, to attending NBA games, to the amount of autographs he signed. He says that the burden of following a Heisman season is "heavier than the trophy itself."

Winston has had his problems as well. Most recently, he was suspended for the Seminoles' game against Clemson, which they won in overtime, for shouting obscenities at the FSU student union. Plenty of people chimed in with various hot takes on Winston following the incident.

Manziel said that he will reach out to Winston and that he just wants to "help in as many ways as I can."
