MORNING AFTER

Russell Wilson responded to the many critics that have trashed the Seattle Seahawks' last-minute decision not to rush the ball in the game-ending play as the "worst call in Super Bowl history." The Seahawks botched their chance to become Super Bowl winners for the second year in a row when a throw was intercepted 36 inches from the end zone, but the team's quarterback will not be brought down. "At 26 years old, I won't allow 1 play or 1 moment define my career," Wilson tweeted Monday morning. "I will keep evolving. #motivation."

Cleveland Browns quarterback Johnny Manziel entered rehab last week after a season of well-documented hard partying. "Johnny knows there are areas in which he needs to improve in order to be a better family member, friend, and teammate and he thought the off-season was the right time to take this step," his publicist Denise Michaels said in a statement. Manziel was criticized for being unprepared throughout the season and failed to show up to practice the day before the Browns' final game of the season. Security was sent to his home, where Manziel was "drunk off his ass," team sources told ESPN.com. His off-the-field partying included drinking on floating swans and being found with a rolled up bill in a bar bathroom.
