WATCH: Browns score touchdown on failed hook-and-ladder by Steelers as time expires
The Cleveland Browns emerged from their Week 3 tilt against the Pittsburgh Steelers with their second win of the season, and the game ended with an eventful hook-and-ladder play that ended in a touchdown as time expired. Pittsburgh got the ball on the four-yard line with less than 10 seconds remaining in the matchup and elected to try their chances at the rarest of comeback attempts.
When receiver Chase Claypool lateraled the ball to star running back Najee Harris near the goal line, it was fumbled to the ground and was eventually recovered in the end zone by Denzel Ward for a Browns touchdown as time expired. By rule, there was no extra point attempt.
Check out the spectacular ending to the team’s second win of the season, which has Cleveland in the top position in the AFC North:

The final score reflected how dominant the Browns were in the second half, and this play was the cherry on top of Cleveland’s primetime win on Thursday night. The team will now have a long week to prepare to play the Falcons in Week 4.
