in short...

both teams fined $250,000 each

Garrett is suspended indefinitely... at least the remainder of 2019 season

Pouncey suspended 3 games

Ogunjobi suspended 1 game



ETA: Garrett's statement

3 games for Pouncy is BS, as is only one game for Ogunjobi.

I was right on 2 of the 3. Thought the other Browns player would get 2. But this seems consistent and the NFLPA is doing a good job not going crazy over this.

Pouncey getting 3 games is a joke. Especially considering Oujounbee got only 1 game

Not really. He was kicking Garrett in the head while being held down by DeCastro. They got all this right. If he doesn't kick him in the head he only gets a game, like the other Brown does.

Other Browns player deserved at least two, and I'd probably drop Pouncy to two.

Many people, myself included, said Garrett’s career may be in jeopardy last night in the mega thread. Looks like we were correct.

They will reinstate him at some point, but he’s right there alongside Vontaze Burfict now. Every egregious penalty/hit is going to cost him the rest of the season moving forward.

Agreed. He tried to rip Garrett's helmet off. At least give him a fine. But he wasn't innocent.

NFL might be scared to suspend Mason due to legal implications of being sued due to what happened to him... just pondering.

Oh cmon, he instigated and helped escalate the situation. I'm not super concerned that he didn't get suspended, but absolving him from all guilt for the fight is asinine. Obviously he didn't deserve to get beat with his own helmet, but to say he literally did nothing wrong is going too far in the other direction.

And?

Nothing Rudolph did would ever result in a suspension.

It isnt his fault another guy went fricking psycho. You judge an individual on THEIR OWN ACTIONS, not the results of someone else

Didnt say that. I said he didnt do anything that warrants a suspension
