Carly Teller, the wife of Cleveland Browns (3-10) right guard Wyatt Teller, said that Pittsburgh Steelers (10-3) fans were “blatantly disrespectful” towards her and others while the two teams went head-to-head this past Sunday.

“The fans in Pittsburgh today were so blatantly disrespectful to me and the Browns girls,” she wrote Sunday on X. “I’ve never felt so attacked by people who I literally did nothing to. Very sad/embarrassing behavior.”

Teller later provided specifics in an Instagram story, claiming that Steelers fans inside Acrisure Stadium were screaming at her “the entire time.”

“When you’re just trying to have a drink and watch your husbands at work but surrounded by Steelers fans who are screaming at them and you the entire time,” Teller wrote, per USA Today.

“So long as they don’t put their hands on a woman or crazy expose themselves or spit on my wife, you can say whatever you want,” Teller said, via Mary Kay Cabot of Cleveland.com. “You’ve got to understand when you’re in a hostile environment like that what you’re going to get.”

Teller, a Brown for the last six seasons, is certainly no stranger to the rivalry between the two AFC North division mates. And so, he understands it may get a little hostile from time to time between fanbases.

“This rivalry goes back way too long to be like, ‘Oh, you’re just the wife!’ It doesn’t matter. I hate you. Right?” Teller said. “And you know, I pray that our fans are a little better, but I know that [the] Dawg Pound can get a little rowdy. So, I’m not naive to the fact that this rivalry goes so far back that you gotta understand that it’s hostile out there.”
