CLEVELAND, Ohio- The Cleveland Browns mounted a 11-5 record and beat the Pittsburgh Steelers 24-22 at FirstEnergy Stadium on Sunday to clinch one of three wild-card playoffs spots, the first time since 2002 that the Browns have been in the playoffs, and a victory that stopped a 17 season losing drought.

First in the AFC North, the Steelers head to the playoffs for the first time since 2017 and will host the Browns in a post regular season match-up as the rivalry between the two NFL teams continues.

Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski, 38, walked off the field with the game-winning football and handed it to Joel Bitonio, the team's most tenured player.

Quarterback Baker Mayfield, a Heisman Trophy winner, ran for the game winning first down as Browns fans in the stadium where attendance was limited to 10,000 due to the coronavirus pandemic went wild.

The Browns fell to 10-5 after last week's loss to the New York Jets, putting playoffs hopes in danger. But they prevailed Sunday over the mighty Steelers as star wide receivers like Jarvis Landry, Rashard Higgins, Donovan Peoples-Jones, KhaDarel Hodge and Jacob Phillips returned to the field after being put on inactive status after testing positive for the coronavirus.

Coming in to Sunday's match-up with the Steelers, the Browns were missing multiple starters, including star cornerback Denzel Ward, and three assistant coaches who also tested positive for the virus.
