That was quick.

We just told you about Myles Garrett’s claim that Mason Rudolph used a racial slur towards him before that ugly helmet-swinging incident during last week’s Steelers-Browns TNF contest.

Garrett made the claim while appealing his suspension on Wednesday, and Adam Schefter revealed the claim today on Twitter.
