The Pittsburgh Steelers dominated the Cleveland Browns on Sunday, but Jaquan Brisker was not done going after Deshaun Watson even after the final whistle.

On the third play of the game, the Steelers safety hit Watson high and was flagged for roughing the passer, handing Cleveland a fresh set of downs. The hit sent Watson to the medical tent for a concussion evaluation, and Shedeur Sanders stepped in for the rest of the series.

Watson passed the evaluation and returned for the Browns’ next drive, but Brisker clearly did not think much of the call.

“Babying the quarterback. He’s over there crying or whatever he’s doing. It is what it is,” Brisker said, via Ashley Wensk of KDKA-TV.

Brisker then added another jab: “He had his binky today, so.”

The flag aside, it was a long day for Watson and the Browns at Acrisure Stadium. Pittsburgh cruised to a 27-6 win, sacking Watson eight times and holding Cleveland out of the end zone for the first time this season.

Watson completed 27 of 39 passes for 324 yards without a touchdown or an interception, but the Browns could not get anything going on the ground, finishing with just 34 rushing yards on 15 carries. Cleveland also lost two fumbles, while Pittsburgh’s defense racked up 13 quarterback hits and forced four three-and-outs.

The Steelers, meanwhile, piled up 200 rushing yards. Rico Dowdle opened the scoring with a 9-yard touchdown run, Pat Freiermuth punched in a 1-yard score just before halftime and Jaylen Warren added another 1-yard touchdown run in the third quarter to make it 27-6.

The win was a measure of revenge for Pittsburgh, which fell 27-24 to the Browns on Thursday Night Football in Week 4. The Steelers improved to 6-2 and have now won four straight games, while the Browns dropped to 5-3.

Brisker has quickly made his presence felt in Pittsburgh. The former second-round pick spent his first four seasons with the Chicago Bears before signing a one-year, $5.5 million deal with the Steelers in March.

His comments will likely add even more fuel to an already heated AFC North rivalry. The Steelers will have a week off before visiting the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday Night Football on Nov. 15.
