Cleveland native Steve Harvey was hosting the NFL Honors show for the second straight year.
He wasted no time in poking fun at his hometown Cleveland Browns in the show.
Harvey made it punchline to point out that being back for a second year as a Cleveland boy, is a reason for a laugh.
Nick Chubb also seemed less than amused after the joke.
“That’s a big deal for a Cleveland boy to make it back twice,” Harvey said as the camera showed Browns running back Nick Chubb and wide receiver Jarvis Landry in the audience. “Because unlike Cleveland coaches — they don’t normally make it to a second season.”

The Browns are coming off a disappointing 6-10 season in which they fired Freddie Kitchens after only year in 2019.
Harvey made in known, however, that he hopes the Browns will bounce back in 2020.

Following the Browns’ firing of Freddie Kitchens, they hired Vikings offensive coordinator Kevan Stefanski as their new head coach.
The team also recently hired Andrew Berry as their new general manager and vice president of football operations after parting ways with John Dorsey earlier this year.
He’s not wrong, and it was funny. I think we as fans are allowed to roast the Browns like this. It shows people are watching and shows we fans care to see them win. I know it may bug some players to hear jokes about their team, but that’s just part of the territory for a team that has lost so much these past years.
Perfect choice for Browns comedy.Please don’t get offended,because it’s real!We need to stand back,and laugh at ourselves,at times.Good for the soul!Good for the players,that need inspired!They can make it happen!Here’s looking at 2020!❤️😎🏈
