Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver George Pickens had to be held back by stadium security after getting tangled up with a Browns player on the final play of Thursday's game.
An AFC North rivalry had another page added to its long book of ugly history on Thursday night. The Cleveland Browns squeaked out a win over the Pittsburgh Steelers in blizzard conditions on their home turf, but as soon as the game ended, things turned sour for two players. Russell Wilson was aiming for the end zone on the final play of the game, and his pass fell incomplete to give the Browns a 24-19 victory.
Wide receiver George Pickens was guarded well by Greg Newsome II, totally taking him out of the play. Apparently, they started to get into it. Cameras missed the beginning of what looked to be an ugly skirmish, but a quick pan appeared to show the two getting tangled up by the stands. The camera then showed Pickens being held back by two members of stadium security near the seats.
Pittsburgh, meanwhile, suffered their third loss of the season opposite their eight victories. Follow Fox News Digital’s sports coverage on X, and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.
