With Week 13 coming up for the NFL, the Cleveland Browns are riding high after last week’s victory against the Pittsburgh Steelers. It was a tough battle between both teams, who have one of most historic rivalries in the league with emotions always running high. With the NFL handing out their weekly punishments the day before games resume, one Browns player has received a massive punishment for his unsportsmanlike conduct.
Cleveland Browns Safety Gets Punished
Browns safety Grant Delpit was fined $11,255 for snatching Steelers wide receiver George Pickens‘ mouthpiece after a play. The Browns’ defense seemed to have Pittsburgh’s number the entire game, and Delpit wanted Pickens to know it.

NFL Fans React
Following this fine going public, fans wanted to know if Pickens would also be punished by the league for his fight at the end of the game that involved Browns players and staff. Pickens has been known to get involved in chaos, and fans want him to be punished by the league if Delpit is being fined for this.
How much did Pickens get fined

But the #NFL did not fine Pickens for trying to trip him. Or the fight at the end of the game. 🤷🏼♂️

How many games was Pickens suspended?

Pickens was also seen tripping the safety prior to him taking the mouthpiece, but the league has not yet handed out a punishment for the star receiver.
