‘It Means A Little Bit More:’ Browns LB Anthony Walker Jr. Has Extra Juice For Steelers After 2022 Injury Against Them

The Pittsburgh Steelers and Cleveland Browns rivalry has had no shortage of drama, especially in recent years. Last year, during a Week Three Thursday Night Football matchup, LB Anthony Walker suffered a season-ending leg injury during a play in which RT Chukwuma Okorafor fell on top of him. The optics of the play weren’t great, but Okorafor did nothing malicious; it’s something offensive linemen are trained to do.

But the Browns spoke out against the play, claiming it was dirty. Myles Garrett at the time called it a “bullshit play” with OL Wyatt Teller claiming Okorafor didn’t have the best intentions.
