With the excitement of a Thursday Night Football divisional matchup in the air, former Browns G Joel Bitonio helped fire up fans before the Browns kicked off their Week 4 matchup against the Steelers on Oct. 1. As the crowd roared when Bitonio's name was announced, he held a Steelers-themed guitar over his head and smashed it to pieces.
Bitonio played all 12 seasons of his NFL career with the Browns, spanning from 2014-25. In June, Bitonio announced his retirement from football after starting 178 games and being selected to seven Pro-Bowls. Bitonio was also named to two All-Pro First Teams and three All-Pro Second Teams during his career.
