It must have been quite frustrating for the players to not be able to shower after a tiring game. From the tweet, it also seems like the stadium needs other repair services as well.

Dorian Thompson-Robinson shines in the Cleveland Browns’ victory over the jets
In the spotlight of the Hall of Fame game, emerging talents illuminated the field with their standout performances. As expected star player Deshaun Watson took a backseat to test the backups. It was the rookie quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson who stole the show for the Cleveland Browns.
Displaying his multifaceted prowess, Thompson-Robinson completed 8 of 11 passing attempts for 82 yards and a touchdown. The NFL star’s ground game was equally impressive, rushing for 37 yards in six attempts.
For New York Jets, Zach Wilson, the backup quarterback, showcased marked improvement from previous outings. Wilson orchestrated the first three drives, connecting on 3 of 5 attempts for 65 yards. His highlight moment was a deep 57-yard pass to Malik Taylor, setting up the season’s inaugural field goal.
As the Hall of Fame game unfolded, these bright players left an indelible mark on their teams. In the end, it was the Cleveland Browns who had the last laugh. Now, it’ll be worth watching whether the team continues this form or not.
