Story summary

On Thursday night, the Cleveland Browns defeated the Pittsburgh Steelers 27-24 in an AFC North matchup. Defensive end Jared Verse led the physical effort that secured the win for the Browns, who now lead their division with a 3-1 record. After the game, Verse expressed his disdain for the Steelers' tactics and stated that the current Browns team is not like previous versions, boasting about their newfound "aggressiveness." Despite causing an offsides penalty late in the fourth quarter which gave the Steelers a chance to tie the game at 24, Verse was bailed out by quarterback Deshaun Watson's performance. The Browns celebrated their victory with trash talk directed towards the Steelers, particularly targeting QB Aaron Rodgers and cornerback Denzel Ward intercepting one of his passes.
