BEREA, Ohio -- Johnny Manziels No. http://www.officiallionsgear.com/Lions-Marvin-Jones-Jr-Draft-Jersey/ . 2 jersey has double meaning. Hes behind Brian Hoyer. Browns coach Mike Pettine said Hoyer is "securely ahead" in the competition to be Clevelands starting quarterback this season, but his lead over Manziel isnt "insurmountable." After the Browns ended their three-day mandatory minicamp Thursday, Pettine sized up the battle as a friendly fight that will heat up when the team opens training camp late in July. Pettine said Hoyer, who is recovering from knee surgery and has been limited during practices, still has a grip on the starting job -- for now. "Its been hard to evaluate because Brian hasnt been able to take the 11-on-11 reps, but when we put the depth chart together, Brian will be No. 1," he said. Pettine agrees with Browns general manager Ray Farmers evaluation that Manziel, the wildly popular 2012 Heisman Trophy winner and first-round draft pick from Texas A&M, has some catching up to do. Manziel is trailing Hoyer, but maybe not by much. "I dont think its insurmountable," Pettine said. "Brian is securely ahead of him right now, but we will compete and we will decide. The issue for us as a staff is finding the right time to name a starter. If you wait too late, then nobodys ready for the opener, if you do it too soon, then it wasnt a true competition. "That will be part of our discussions as well as far as OK, heres the plan, heres a date that we want to go ahead and name him." During recent workouts open to the media, Manziel has shown some of the flashes that earned him the Johnny Football nickname in college. But there have also been moments where he looked like another lost rookie. Pettine made it clear the Browns have not made any decisions and the competition is still in its infancy. "We havent really been in the mode of thinking, Hes this far ahead today. How much was the gap closed?" Pettine said. "Theyre still learning the basics of the offence. The rookies havent been here very long. Theyre playing catch-up from a playbook standpoint. So at this point, we really werent keeping score. " Pettine kept Hoyer and Manziel off limits to reporters this week, hoping to contain a story thats expected to only grow. In the next few weeks, Pettine and his staff will decide how to best divide the snaps between Hoyer and Manziel. Pettine said its safe to assume the duties will be shared. "I dont know how even well get it, but there will definitely be times when Johnny will be with the ones (starters)," Pettine said. "It would be hard to evaluate if we didnt that. If there wasnt a competition, then it would just be strictly ones and ones, twos and twos. We havent met to go over that." Pettine also plans to play Manziel with Clevelands starting offence in exhibition games. "If a guy has a chance to be a starter, I would think that youd want to expose him to a starting defence if he was going to be the guy opening day," said Pettine. Manziel has made some headlines with his off-the-field antics in recent weeks. He partied poolside in Las Vegas with Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski and was filmed spraying champagne on patrons in a nightclub. Last weekend, he was in Austin, Texas, where he was photographed lying on an inflatable swan raft in a pool, drinking champagne. Pettine wont micromanage Manziel or any of his players as long as theyre not involved in anything thats criminal or affects their jobs. But with a long break coming up, hes hoping all the Browns steer clear of danger. "Its nervous any time your entire team is dismissed," he said. "As a coach, you hear your phone ring and you kind of look at it with one eye, hoping its not an issue coming up. We talked to them about it. We wanted to make sure that they handled themselves well. The advice was: Learn the system, stay in shape, stay out of trouble." http://www.officiallionsgear.com/Lions-Christian-Jones-Draft-Jersey/ .

Mika Zibanejad and Jason Spezza scored in the shootout to lead the Ottawa Senators to a 2-1 victory over Nashville on Saturday night.Barrie McDermott says Super League must work harder to raise its profile or players will continue to leave for the NRL or rugby union. Wigan were dealt a double blow on Wednesday with Josh Charnley announcing he will swap codes at the end of the season and join Sale Sharks, while Dan Sarginson agreed a move to the Gold Coast Titans in the NRL.Former Warriors prop McDermott admits the spending power of the NRL and rugby union makes it difficult for Super League clubs to compete, but says more must be done to make the players feel valued. What can we do to stop players leaving? We need to give them a better platform, as in the profile of the game, McDermott told Sky Sports News HQ.Sky do a wonderful job but we need to raise the profile so the players feel valued. That needs to be reflected by their pay packets as well. Josh Charnley is the latest rugby league player to switch codes after announcing hell join Aviva Premiership side Sale next season Im not saying these two players are leaving just for money, its for the opportunity, but when you have a salary cap of £1. http://www.officiallionsgear.com/Lions-Ziggy-Ansah-Draft-Jersey/. .8m and other teams or sports offer them better wages, it is only natural they would be tempted.Dan Sarginson came up north from London. He was born in Australia and learned his rugby league in Hemel Hempstead. It will be a shame to lose him. He has developed into a wonderful player.He came to the club as a stand-off but made his name as a centre, and he has been playing at full-back lately due to the injury to Sam Tomkins. Charnley is a little bit different to Sarginson. He learned his trade down the road at Chorley and came through the system. He is Wigan born and bred and for him to leave the club and go to rugby union, its about the opportunity. It is a desperate shame for the club.We have to work harder as a game not to lose our great stars. Also See: Charnley swaps Wigan for Sale WATCH: Baz and Tezs big hits!
