With only eight seconds to play in the Browns’ 21-7 win over the Steelers, Cleveland defensive end Myles Garrett planted Pittsburgh quarterback Mason Rudolph into the FirstEnergy Stadium Turf. Following a brief tussle with the Steelers’ quarterback, Garrett ripped Rudolph’s helmet off and swung it at him, striking him in the head.
Multiple players threw punches in retaliation and three, Garrett included, were ejected from the game.
“That’s one of the worst things I’ve ever seen on a professional sports field,” FOX announcer Joe Buck said on the broadcast.
“It’s inexcusable,” Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield told FOX’s Erin Andrews following the game.
