UPDATE: In a shocking turn of events on tonight’s episode of Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test, former NFL quarterback Johnny Manziel has voluntarily quit the grueling competition during a particularly intense challenge. This news comes as tensions ran high among recruits, now on their fourth day of the selection process.

The recruits faced a nerve-wracking “infiltration task” that required crawling through tight, dirt-filled underground tunnels. As pressure mounted, Manziel reached a breaking point and decided to withdraw, leaving his team behind in a crucial moment. Viewers witnessed firsthand the emotional strain, as many participants are already showing signs of mental and physical fatigue.

Just two weeks prior, reality TV star Teresa Giudice exited the show, leaving her daughter Gia Giudice visibly shaken when she experienced a panic attack during tonight’s challenges. Additionally, last week saw Jussie Smollett medically discharged after developing an allergy to dust. The challenges have escalated, making this season one of the most anxiety-inducing yet.

Currently, several recruits remain in the competition, including Gia Giudice, Shawn Johnson East, Andrew East, Jessie James Decker, Eric Decker, Kody Brown, Brianna LaPaglia, Chanel Iman, Mark Estes, Randall Cobb, Christie Pearce Rampone, Ravi Patel, and Nick Young.

How to Watch: Fans can catch new episodes of Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test every Thursday at 9 p.m. ET/PT on FOX. For those without cable, the show is available for streaming on platforms like Fubo, YouTube TV, Hulu + Live TV, and Sling TV. New episodes also become accessible Friday mornings on Hulu and FOX One, which is currently offering a one-week free trial.

Stay tuned for more updates on this gripping season as the competition intensifies and emotional moments unfold.
