The NFL had to act swiftly in its punishment of Cleveland Browns defensive end Myles Garrett, after one of the ugliest moments in NFL history.
On Friday, NFL spokesman Michael Signora tweeted the league’s decision: Garrett has been suspended indefinitely, and at minimum for the remainder of the 2019 season, including the playoffs.
In addition, Steelers center Maurkice Pouncey has been suspended for three games, and Browns defensive tackle Larry Ogunjobi has been suspended for one game.
The players are suspended without pay. Each franchise has been fined $250,000.
The NFL announcement says additional discipline could be coming. That could include at least a fine for Pittsburgh’s Mason Rudolph, who tried to take Garrett’s helmet off and kicked Garrett in the groin, intentionally or unintentionally.
