Cleveland dropped to 3–9 after a tough 8–26 loss to the 49ers. But what really fired people up wasn’t just the score. Late in the game, Browns defensive lineman Maliek Collins was taken off on a cart because of an injury. While he was being driven away, Jennings reportedly made things worse with some rude comments, and Shelby Harris isn't keeping quiet about it.

According to the Browns' lineman Shelby Harris, "He’s a h**, and I want that known. I see why he got punched in the n***, because he said some things you should not say to another man. Ever. But I don’t respect it because you say that, then run behind your O-line. That’s some real soft s***, and I want that known." But that's not all.

As fans may remember, Tre'von Moehrig received a suspension for an altercation with Jennings in Week 12. While Jennings maintained he "just responded to some childish behavior," Moehrig and other Panthers maintained that Jennings was "talking crazy." At the time, Moehrig received a one-game suspension and a $65,000 fine, while Jennings had a $12,000 fine.

Harris explained he thinks there's some sense to what the Panthers squad believed. And he's not alone.

Even Browns star Myles Garrett shared his thoughts. “I can’t speak for how he was raised,” Garrett said. "So, he had a lot to say that was demeaning and disparaging towards some of our players... I don't feel like that belongs in the game. But, hey, if that works for him and them, then more power to him. But I'm just trying to keep my guys focused on the game and not worried about stuff outside of it because we're focused on what's on the field."

On the field, Jennings still played well. He finished with four catches for 39 yards and a touchdown, helping the 49ers improve to 9–4.

Was this just the heat of the moment, or did he go too far?
