Fans take issue with Browns assistant GM’s outfit

A wardrobe-related issue is among the latest reasons fans are roasting the Cleveland Browns online, and it has nothing to do with their uniforms.

Browns assistant general manager Catherine Hickman faced reporters on Wednesday, which wasn’t anything out of the ordinary. 

What caught the attention of people online the most was not the words she was saying but her sweatshirt, including the message on it.

On the front of her ripped attire was a message that read “Los Angeles Made Me Do It.” 

Here is a clip showing Hickman wearing that sweatshirt while fielding questions from the media.

The message itself wasn’t exactly a profound statement that would make anyone ponder the meaning of life, but it was interesting nonetheless given the context of Cleveland’s season. 

For one, the football world is still buzzing over the massive trade the Browns made with the Los Angeles Rams, who acquired former No. 1 overall NFL draft pick and superstar pass rusher Myles Garrett from Cleveland in exchange for a package that included star defensive end Jared Verse.

Fans quickly pointed out the seeming irony of a Browns front office executive wearing a shirt with a message referring to the city the team just sent its franchise player to.

Man, the Browns always find a new way to lower the bar 😂

This is the perfect embodiment of why the Browns can’t field a winning football team.

We are a joke and this lady is trolling us. Why do I even root for this team if they are just going to troll us?

— TheMainRyan85 (@TheMainRyan85) September 2, 2026

Why is she wearing a los Angeles shirt? Assistant GM in Cleveland and she can't wear the city or colors she is representing?

— justin thivener (@Jateou) September 2, 2026

God this organization is a bad joke.

This is a small issue that shouldn’t impact the Browns’ performance on the field, but it’s another example of how Cleveland always finds a way to turn heads for the wrong reasons.
