Report: Myles Garrett is “not open” to a contract extension with the Browns

[Street Knowledge]

Browns edge rusher Myles Garrett has made his wishes known: He wants a trade out of Cleveland.

It is not an attempt to get more money out of the team.

Mary Kay Cabot said Garrett is “not open” to a contract extension from the Browns.

The Scouting Combine is where General Managers and agents meet to talk about such matters, but Garrett’s camp has “slammed the door” on negotiations, per Cabot.

Garrett made a public request for a tradeFeb. 3, seeking to go to a Super Bowl contender. The Browns, though, continue to insist they aren’t trading their All-Pro player.

Both General Manager Andrew Berry and coach Kevin Stefanski said this week that they expect Garrett on the roster this season.

Garrett, the No. 1 pick of the 2017 draft, is a four-time All-Pro and is already one of the best players in franchise history. He has 102.5 career sacks, becoming the first player in league history to record at least 14 sacks in four consecutive seasons.

He has two years left on his contract with cap hits of $19.722 million in 2025 and $20.374 million in 2026. Garrett has no guaranteed money left in his contract.

The dead money alone makes it unlikely he gets traded before the draft.

Any NFC team especially those that are winning need to be putting packages together to try and get him from the Browns. There's probably a chance for a couple of AFC teams but think it's less likely they let him stay in the AFC and definitely no one in the AFC North.

Trade him, Ward and anyone of any type of value tbh

 

[Leasy]

Eagles interested but they not going to make the move first. They will monitor and if he likely goes to NFC opponent Howie will unlesh

Browns GM who use to work with the Eagles and now his brother works with the Eagles

 

[darealvelle]

washington need to go ahead and make that move.

 

[Schadenfreude]

Detroit makes a TON of sense, but whether or not they do it is the question. Hutchinson and Garrett and Za'Darius on the same DL is a PROBLEM.

Edit: if you put all 3 out there on the same line, who in the actual hell do you double team? And more importantly, how many QB's would end up on IR from getting blasted every play?

 

[Womb Raider]

Needs to come to Indy but we a clown show now

 

[Buckeye Fever]

If he doesn't wanna be part of somethin' special, let him leave

Smart man
