The Cleveland Browns may be looking to trade defensive end Myles Garrett, and several teams are reportedly interested. One top AFC team that’s been floated as a potential trade suitor is the Detroit Lions.
Garrett, a three-time All-Pro and former No. 1 pick, has been effective at times, with four sacks and two forced fumbles this season. However, with the Browns struggling at 1-5, some analysts believe it’s time for the team to trade Garrett and rebuild.
The Lions, with their defensive-minded head coach Dan Campbell, could be a good fit for Garrett. They have a young star edge rusher in Aidan Hutchinson, and pairing him with Garrett could solidify their defensive line.
Other teams may also be interested in trading for Garrett, but the Browns would need to consider the salary cap implications of such a move. Garrett has a massive contract, and trading him would require the team to take on significant dead cap space.
It’s worth noting that trading Garrett is not a straightforward decision, and the Browns would need to carefully consider their options. However, with the team struggling and Garrett’s contract looming large, it’s possible that a trade could be on the horizon .
