NFL’s emphasis on taunting penalties could hurt the Browns

The NFL announced on Tuesday that officials will take a much closer view of taunting during the 2021 season.

And that might be bad news for at least one player on the Cleveland Browns.

The league released its annual rule change and points of emphasis video that highlights what the league considers to be taunting. The video also made a point to emphasize that if a player or coach receives two taunting violations it will result in an automatic ejection, with the possibility of fines and even a suspension being on the table, according to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero.
