In brief: Grogginess from Rx
It can be associated with drowsiness and sleepiness. Be sure to get a full night of sleep when taking Flexeril and tell your doctor if you do not tolerate it in the daytime due to sleepiness so they can consider other options to help your neck pain. Avoid driving or operating machinery if groggy from any medication.

Oh yes very much so.
So make sure if taking the medication you do not have to drive or do anything that requires concentration

In brief: Yes
Drowsiness is a common side effect of Flexeril.
You can try to take 5mg instead to see if the side effects lessen.
