Johnny Manziel to Boycott Heisman Trophy Ceremony Until Reggie Bush Receives Award Back

In a bold stand, former Heisman Trophy winner Johnny Manziel announced that he will boycott the annual ceremony until Reggie Bush regains his stripped award from 2010. Manziel expressed his strong morals and values, stating that Bush deserves to be recognized alongside other former winners.

Reggie Bush, who won the Heisman in 2005, faced consequences in 2010 when the NCAA stripped him of the award due to accepting money and gifts from a potential agent during his time at USC. Despite plans to sue the NCAA for defamation, Bush has yet to reclaim his Heisman.

Manziel made it clear that he stands in solidarity with Bush by refusing to participate in the ceremony until justice is served and Bush's trophy is rightfully returned to him. He emphasized that this decision is about doing what is right and honoring Bush's undeniable impact on the field.

Joining forces with Manziel, the football community awaits the resolution of this longstanding issue and supports the quest for fairness and recognition for Reggie Bush. The Heisman ceremony stands as a symbol of excellence in college football, and many believe that Bush's presence among the past winners is essential to upholding its integrity.
