Myles Garrett just committed actual assault on the football field. Get him out of here for the SEASON. pic.twitter.com/a7pkN6HZeg

If you missed the end of the Pittsburgh Steelers 21-7 loss to the Cleveland Browns, you missed one of the most bizarre and frankly savage endings to an NFL football game in a long time. As time was winding down and the Steelers still trying to get points on the board, Browns defensive end takes Steelers quarterback Mason Rudolph down.
What happens next has to be seen to be believed. Check out the video in the two tweets above. Garrett tore off Rudolph’s helmet and proceeded to hit Rudolph in the face with it. At that point, Pittsburgh center Maurkice Pouncey went after Garrett and took him down, kicking and punching to defend his quarterback.
Garrett, Pouncey and Browns defensive tackle Larry Ogunjobi were all ejected for their part in the insane scrum. The only thing to do now is see how the league sorts out the punishment. From a Steelers standpoint, I won’t be shocked if Pouncey is suspended a game or two for his part. But Garrett did enough to earn himself a full season ejection.
