Antonio Brown Defends Mason Rudolph With Perfect Response to Browns Beef

This week's Cleveland Browns-Pittsburgh Steelers Thursday Night game briefly turned into a Mortal Kombat showdown when Browns defensive end Myles Garrett ripped the helmet off Steeler QB Mason Rudolph and used to hit him in the head.

Former Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown, who played with Rudolph last season, subsequently fired off a tweet in support of his former teammate, throwing it back to his own infamous moment against the Browns.

The photo comes from when Brown was running back a punt and tried to leap over Cleveland's Spencer Lanning. Instead of vaulting Lanning, however, Brown ended kicking him right in the facemask, knocking him to the ground and earning himself an $8,200 fine.

Brown might have escaped with a relatively minor penalty, as it was clear he was honestly trying to hurdle Lanning, but Garrett is widely expected to get a major suspension that could see him out for the rest of the season.

When ANTONIO BROWN can claim the moral high ground, you know that you have royally messed something up.
