Johnny Manziel and the Cleveland Browns attempted a little trickery during Sunday's game against the Ravens.

During the second quarter, Manziel lined up wide left and began exchanging words with offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan. When the ball was snapped, Manziel sprinted down the sideline, catching a 39-yard pass from QB Brian Hoyer. However, it was called back due to an illegal shift penalty.

The Browns selected Manziel with the 22nd pick in the 2014 NFL draft. He has seen minimal playing time this season.
