Responding quickly to an ugly incident in a nationally televised game, the NFL suspended Browns defensive end Myles Garrett without pay indefinitely Friday — a minimum of the rest of the 2019 season — for multiple unnecessary roughness and unsportsmanlike conduct violations that included “using the helmet as a weapon” when he hit Steelers quarterback Mason Rudolph in the head with Rudolph’s own helmet.
Steelers center Maurkice Pouncey was suspended without pay for three games and fined for punching and kicking Garrett after Garrett hit Rudolph. Browns defensive tackle Larry Ogunjobi was suspended without pay for one game and fined for unnecessary roughness when he shoved Rudolph to the ground as the altercation ensued.
