Browns Players Make Rookie Defensive Linemen Pay for $37,000 Team Dinner

Losing every game so far in 2017 apparently did not deter the Cleveland Browns defensive linemen from hazing their rookies with an expensive restaurant check.           

Not far removed from receiving the newcomer treatment, second-year defensive end Emmanuel Ogbah posted a $37,361.35 bill on Snapchat, which a Twitter user later shared. Ogbah then thanked Myles Garrett, Larry Ogunjobi and Caleb Brantley for paying the lavish cost.

At least Garrett has more money than the typical neophyte.

Per Spotrac, this year's No. 1 overall draft pick will net over $5.5 million, most of which he accrued with a $5.1 million signing bonus. Respectively selected in the third and sixth rounds, defensive tackles Ogunjobi and Brantley don't make nearly as much as many of their teammates.

Perhaps this is another prank like ones played by members of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Green Bay Packers. Even for NFL linemen, spending over $3,000 per person seems far-fetched.
