Browns safety Ronnie Harrison Jr. was not in the game long before he was kicked out of the game for good.
Just ten minutes into the Browns-Chiefs tilt this afternoon, Harrison was ejected for shoving Chiefs RB Coach Grew Lewis, who, to be fair, shoved Harrison first in an effort to get Harrison off running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire. It was a mess.

Chiefs RB coach Grew Lewis appeared to shove Browns safety Ronnie Harrison Jr. off Clyde Edwards-Helaire. Harrison retaliated by pushing Lewis. They've now made the penalties off-setting, and Harrison has been ejected.

Initially, Lewis got a flag on the play, but the referees got together, changed their decision, and ejected Harrison from the game. And for however unfair as it may seem to Harrison, pushing someone OFF a player is a lot different than retaliating — or, at least, that’s how the refs saw it.
That’s the first ejection of the season.
