After hearing appeals of the suspensions of multiple players involved with the fight near the end of the game between the Pittsburgh Steelers and Cleveland Brown last Thursday. The suspensions of Browns DE Myles Garrett and DT Larry Ogunjobi were upheld and the suspension of Steelers offensive lineman Maurkice Pouncey was reduced, the league announced.
Pouncey was originally suspended three games and would have missed the game against the Arizona Cardinals on December 8.
With the appeal, his final missed game will be the rematch between the Steelers and Browns, and he will suit up against the Cardinals.
The Cardinals play the Steelers and Browns on consecutive Sundays. They were going to avoid both Pouncey and Garrett. Instead, they will face a full Steelers squad and then the Browns without their top pass rusher.
