Click here to read the full article.
NFL commentators and various sports reporters have all weighed in on the Thursday Night Football fight between Cleveland Browns defensive end Myles Garrett and Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Mason Rudolph.
The brawl at the end of the game included Garrett ripping off Rudolph’s helmet and slamming him in the head with it, a blow that caused the NFL to suspend him for an indeterminate period. The longest suspension in league history lasted 12 games, and Garrett may be in line to extend that record.
