Overview
- Jennings told reporters the Browns’ criticism was “a lot of talk,” said they “wanted some attention,” and declined to repeat his own words.
- He said his personal boundary for on-field chatter is threats about “killing people,” which he considers out of bounds.
- Browns defenders Shelby Harris and Myles Garrett accused Jennings of saying unacceptable things during a stoppage while Maliek Collins was down and later carted off.
- 49ers coach Kyle Shanahan and GM John Lynch publicly backed Jennings’ physical, talkative style as the team returned from its bye to prepare for Week 15.
- One week earlier, the NFL suspended Carolina’s Tre’Von Moehrig one game for a low blow on Jennings and fined Jennings $12,172 for postgame retaliation, with no new punishment tied to the Browns exchange.
