Browns Coach Eric Mangini Accuses Lions Of Faking Injuries
Cleveland Browns head coach Eric Mangini may have ignited another controversy to rival Spygate when he accused the Detroit Lions of faking injuries to slow down their no-huddle offense in the Lions’ 38-37 victory Sunday at Ford Field.
In Mangini’s second year as head coach of the New York Jets, Mangini accused the New England Patriots of videotaping the Jets defensive signals during the 2007 season opener, which later became known as Spygate.
Mangini first brought up his suspicions in his post-game press conference after an unrelated question about the Lions’ fourth timeout for quarterback Matthew Stafford’s injury.
“There were multiple, multiple, multiple injuries throughout our no-huddle process,” Mangini said Sunday.
Asked if he thought the Lions were trying to slow down the no-huddle, Mangini said, “They all came back. I have no idea.”
Mangini brought up the accusation against Monday. When pressed on if he was accusing the Lions of faking injuries, Mangini said, “I’m saying there were a lot of them.”
