Manziel entered a treatment program earlier this year, leaving significant questions about whether the Browns finally have a long-term answer at the most important position in football. ''Coach (Mike) Pettine has articulated that he wants a starter, and we're going to do the things we've got to do to get him somebody that he feels comfortable with as a starter,'' Farmer said.
