BEREA (AP) — Myles Garrett’s appeal hearing for his indefinite suspension will be Wednesday.
Garrett was suspended for at least the last six regular-season games and playoffs for ripping off Pittsburgh quarterback Mason Rudolph’s helmet and striking him on the head with it.
Garrett is appealing the ban, the longest for a single on-field infraction. Former NFL player James Thrash will hear the appeal. Garrett requested to attend the hearing.
Quarterback Baker Mayfield, meanwhile, won his appeal and won’t have to pay a $12,500 fine he received from the NFL last month for criticizing officials following the 32-28 loss to the Seattle Seahawks on Oct. 13.
Mayfield called the officiating “pretty bad” and he was particularly critical of a blindside block penalty called against Browns wide receiver Jarvis Landry
