Browns’ Jameis Winston dove in to the end zone for TD, and the battery on his helmet popped out

Must read

Cleveland Browns quarterback Jameis Winston had an issue after scoring a touchdown on “thursday Night Football” against the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Browns wanted to go for the 2-point conversion and Winston had something hanging out of the top of his helmet.

First, Winston’s highlight play. He ran for it on fourth-and-goal, went airborne and got into the end zone for a huge touchdown as he got hit to give the Browns an 16-6 lead.

The Browns wanted to go for the 2-point attempt to take a 12-point lead. But Winston was pointing at something hanging out of the top of his helmet, apparently letting the sideline know his communication system was out.

Amazon Prime Video sideline reporter Kaylee Hartung explained that what popped out when Winston hit the ground was the battery for the communication device in his helmet. She said that Winston could hear on the 2-point play call, though it sure looked like he was having issues.

Either way, Winston found a way to get the job done. He hit David Njoku in the end zone for a successful 2-point try and an 18-6 Browns lead. Cleveland ended up winning the game 24-19.

Thursday night’s game got weird as the snow fell hard in the second half. Winston having part of his communication device pop out of his helmet just added to the weirdness.
