Saints cornerback Brandon Browner earned a dubious record on national television Monday night.
Browner was flagged for the 23rd time this season (21 accepted), which breaks an NFL penalty record set by Texans tackle Chester Pitts in 2003. Browner tied the penalty last week against the Buccaneers.
The NFL has official records of individual penalties dating back to 1999.
Browner was flagged for a personal foul after launching himself at Lions wide receiver Calvin Johnson with around eight minutes left in the first quarter.
