Mike Tomlin has moved from refusing to comment on the brawl that ended last week’s game against the Cleveland Browns to sharing a loaded comment that will further ignite the teams heading into a Dec. 1 rematch in Pittsburgh.
The Steelers head coach told media after Thursday night’s game he would “keep my thoughts to myself” since everyone saw what happened between Cleveland Browns defensive end Myles Garrett and Steelers quarterback Mason Rudoph. Tomlin let it fly a little bit on Tuesday, and indicated the brawl was squarely the fault of the Browns.
The remarks came 24 minutes into his media availability during which he had short answers for most questions, per Trib Live’s Chris Adamski.
