Steelers' Maurkice Pouncey has 'no regrets' about role in fight vs. Browns

PITTSBURGH -- A jovial Maurkice Pouncey didn't have any regrets about his role in the fight between Steelers quarterback Mason Rudolph and Browns defensive end Myles Garrett three weeks ago in Cleveland.

Pouncey, who served a two-game suspension, was gregarious and light-hearted while speaking publicly Wednesday for the first time since the brawl.

"The NFL had to make a statement, and rightfully so," Pouncey said of the fines. "At the end of the day, the fight didn't look good, but the fight was worth it."

Pouncey was initially suspended three games and fined $35,096 for the fight.
