Myles Garrett Slammed Mason Rudolph With Helmet And Twitter Didn’t Disappoint
While you were probably sleeping, all hell broke loose Thursday night in Cleveland.
The Browns defeated the Pittsburgh Steelers 21-7 in a sloppy, turnover-filled game, but all that took a backseat to the main event: Cleveland defensive end Myles Garrett ripping Steelers quarterback Mason Rudolph’s helmet off his head and proceeding to use it as a weapon against Rudolph’s cranium.
Unsurprisingly, the ugly scene left many speechless and shocked. In some other cases, it led to highly entertaining Twitter activity.
So many penalties the ref had to read them off a notecard. pic.twitter.com/YvL8WEtcor

In all my life of football that might have been the craziest thing I have seen on a football field! They about to suspend Myles Garrett for 30 years! People getting stomped out, that was a hood fight! ??♂️ Hate to see that in our game that’s not what pro football is about!

Myles Garrett should not be allowed to play another snap this season

That’s assault at the least… 6 months in jail on the street.. now add the weapon and that’s at least a year right?!

One Steeler said all the right things in a media scrum, then said off to the side, ‘F—- classless. Like they’ve never been there before.’

Rudolph’s agent also got involved with the conversation, even hinting at possible legal action.
The chain reaction began here with a very late take down following a pass. Very late. That happens every Sunday. It is typically followed by pushing and shoving, even by the QB, and that usually ends it. However, what followed tonight cannot be defended by reasonable minds.

There are many risks an NFL QB assumes with every snap taken on the field. Being hit on your uncovered head by a helmet being swung by a 275 lb DE is not one of them. Tonight could have had a catastrophic ending. The matter will be reviewed thoroughly.
