Skip Bayless has expressed a feeling we usually don’t hear from him — guilt.

The Fox Sports host said the recent bombshell Netflix documentary “Untold: Johnny Football” made him reflect on his interactions with troubled quarterback Johnny Manziel and realized he could have stepped in during one part of Manziel’s spiral.

“I know Johnny looked up to me,” Bayless said Thursday on his podcast, “The Skip Bayless Show.”

“I know Johnny appreciated the fact that I was mostly in his corner, up until the Draft. And I just wish I’d known enough to sit down and actually have a heart to heart with Johnny. Maybe I could have helped. I’m pretty good at that if I know help is wanted and or needed. But I didn’t see it. I didn’t listen to my instincts.”

During a 2018 appearance on “Cold as Balls” with Kevin Hart, Bayless recalled noticing something was different about Manziel, who was also appearing on Hart’s show that day.

“He didn’t look very good,” Bayless said. “He looked a little pale. A little weak. A little worn. And I was shocked.”

“We had some adult small talk. ‘How’s the weather’ kind of talk. ‘How you doing’ kind of talk,’” Bayless continued.

“He was on his best behavior. He was talking to the adults. But as I look back on that moment, I look at it as a quiet cry for help and I wish I’d been listening, but I wasn’t. When I went down to tape my episode with Kevin, Johnny stayed.”

The Netflix documentary revealed the extent of Manziel’s struggles with alcoholism, depression and suicidal thoughts, highlighting a moment in which Manziel bought a gun that he intended to use as a suicide weapon.

Bayless had long been a proponent of Manziel: at one point, he said that Manziel would be bigger for Cleveland than LeBron James.

Manziel, who in 2012 became the first freshman to win the Heisman Trophy, was a first-round pick in the 2014 NFL Draft but lasted just two seasons with the Browns.
