As if the Cleveland Browns didn't have enough problems on their hands already.
In what has turned into a dreadful season for a team that was considered a potential Super Bowl squad, the team lost their sixth game of the season on Sunday to the Denver Broncos.
That was with their top receivers, Odell Beckham Jr. and Jarvis Landry in their lineup. The two wideouts were nearly kicked out of the game for violating the league's uniform policy, as both wore a custom set of cleats that didn't align with the rules.
Beckham wore a set of "Joker" cleats, while Landry went with a brown and gold pair. The two were ordered to change them at half, otherwise, they would've been removed from the game. The league will likely fine each player for failing to comply with their standards. Beckham and Landry ended up switching shoes at halftime.
In the Browns' season-opener, OBJ was fined for wearing a $350,000 watch and was later fined $14,000 for wearing pants that didn't properly cover his knees.
Both receivers had decent games individually, but the bigger issues here continue to be unnecessary off-field distractions that aren't benefitting the team on the field in any shape or way, and their record reflects that.
