The source of Beckham's frustration is unclear, but it likely centered on Cleveland's two-point conversion attempt after his three-yard touchdown reception. Baker Mayfield's pass slipped through the hands of Ricky Seals-Jones.

The situation comes days after Beckham had to play down speculation he was attempting to engineer his exit from Cleveland. Fox Sports' Jay Glazer reported Dec. 8 the three-time Pro Bowler has talked to people outside of the team about trading for him.

The exchange between Beckham and Kitchens is a microcosm of a Browns season that started with high expectations but has been mired in drama and underwhelming performances.
