Myles Garrett, Cleveland Browns defensive end, discussed his decision to request a trade from the team. Garrett’s request to trade away from the team came as quite a surprise for many NFL fans, but some went on to empathize with the player mainly since the Browns have failed to perform in the most recent seasons.
In the 2024 NFL season, the Browns finished last in the AFC North with only three wins and 14 defeats. In their very last game of the season, Cleveland was paired with the Baltimore Ravens and lost the game with a final score of 35-10. In the most recent season, Garrett managed 40 solo tackles in total, with 14 sacks.
“I mean, it’s possible they could do that, but that’s a little bit further down the line than I’m willing to look. I know things have changed night by night, and I’m sure people are calling and hopefully making some tempting offers, but I’m here for my opportunity, and I know that most recently, no one stuck to one team – seeing Luka [Doncic].” Myles Garrett said on the Rich Eisen Show.
Myles Garrett was the first pick of the first round of the 2017 NFL Draft and was selected by the Cleveland Browns, with whom he has been playing ever since. Before the NFL, Garrett played college football for the Texas A&M Aggies from 2014 to 2016 before applying for the draft.
Myles Garrett’s Top NFL Suitors According To Dan Orlovsky
Meanwhile, Dan Orlovsky, former NFL quarterback, recently dropped his top four picks which would be great fits for Myles Garrett. According to Orlovsky, the Minnesota Vikings, the Washington Commanders, the Philadelphia Eagles, and the Buffalo Bills would all be perfect for Garrett to work with.
At the same time, as per recent reports, the Las Vegas Raiders are all in to get Myles Garrett on their side. In the 2024 NFL season, the Raiders finished fourth in the AFC West with only four wins and 13 defeats. In their very last game, the Raiders played against the Los Angeles Chargers and lost the game with a final score of 34-20.
After hiring new coach Pete Carroll to take charge for the upcoming NFL season, the Raiders are redoing their roster and will be surely looking for talented players like Myles Garrett. However, it is still unclear as to whether the team will make an offer, and also if Garrett will accept it.
