The NFL season is always full of social media-worthy moments, and that sometimes includes the not-so-great headline makers. The November 14th matchup between the Browns and the Steelers wasn’t anything special—that is, until the end of the game, when Mason Rudolph and Myles Garrett got into a scuffle.
