Wilson published another tweet around the time he deleted the posted image of himself and Smith-Schuster, saying in part, "We just trying to earn our respect in this league."
We just trying to earn our respect in this league. It’s never our intentions to hurt anyone.

Browns defensive linemen Myles Garrett and Larry Ogunjobi were suspended indefinitely and for one game, respectively, for their roles in Thursday's brawl. Steelers center Maurkice Pouncey received a three-contest ban for the fracas.
Additionally, each club was fined $250,000.
