Watch the 49ers and Browns get into pregame scuffle ahead of Week 6 clash


The clash between the Cleveland Browns and San Francisco 49ers didn't even need to kickoff before things got physical.

As the two teams took the field at Cleveland Browns Stadium before the game, a scuffle broke out on the sidelines between players before coaches and other team personnel broke it up.

The 49ers arrived in Cleveland one of the two undefeated teams remaining in the NFL through five weeks. Quarterback Brock Purdy has led the way for the team with excellent play under center, and he's tied for the lead in NFL MVP odds, according to BetMGM.

Meanwhile, the Browns entered the matchup 2-2 out of their bye week missing quarterback Deshaun Watson with a shoulder injury. P.J. Walker, who began the season on Cleveland's practice squad, is making his first start for the Browns.
