Ravens WR Willie Snead disses Browns, DE Myles Garrett on Twitter

Baltimore Ravens WR Willie Snead retweeted a picture making fun of the Cleveland Browns and DE Myles Garrett for his new contract

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Willie Snead openly mocked the Cleveland Browns and defensive end Myles Garrett on Twitter. Snead retweeted an image that joked about the Browns giving Garrett a record-setting contract after hitting Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Mason Rudolph in the head with his helmet, adding the caption, “That’s the Cleveland Browns for you” and a shrug emoji.

Cleveland signed Garrett to a five-year, $125 million contract extension with $100 million in guaranteed money, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport. The guaranteed money and average cap hits are both the highest of any defensive player in the NFL. Though Garrett is one of the best young pass rushers in the league, some used the contract extension to make light of Garrett’s on-field assault and the Browns’ lack of success in recent years.

When one Browns’ fan reminded Snead that Cleveland gave him his first chance, the Ravens’ wide receiver snapped back.

Snead came into the NFL as an undrafted free agent in 2014, initially signing with the Browns. But just a few months later at the 53-man roster deadline, Cleveland cut Snead, allowing him to eventually join the Carolina Panthers’ practice squad and then the New Orleans Saints where Baltimore would eventually snag him from.

Since joining the Ravens in 2018, Snead has caught 93 of his 141 targets for 990 receiving yards and six receiving touchdowns. He’s entering his third season with Baltimore after signing a one-year contract extension last year. Over his six-year career, Snead has 2,961 receiving yards and 13 receiving touchdowns on 242 receptions. Snead is 2-2 against Cleveland in his career, catching eight passes for 141 yards and one touchdown in those four games combined.

Snead and Garrett will have their chances to battle it out on the field this season. The Ravens are currently scheduled to face off against the Browns in Week 1 and in Week 14 on Monday Night Football.
