Mike Tomlin appeared on ESPN Monday morning, mostly in defense of Mason Rudolph, who was recently accused by Myles Garrett — again — of using a racial slur during their infamous brawl during Week 11 of the 2019 NFL regular season.
“I took offense to it to be quite honest with you,” Tomlin said. “We were hacked off with what we saw this weekend.
“When it first transpired during the season, we don’t have a lot of time to pause and fight battles of that nature. We said our piece, we were completely cooperative with all parties involved, the Cleveland Browns and the National Football League office.
