Browns GM shoots down Myles Garrett trade rumors

MOBILE, Ala. (WKBN) — Cleveland Browns Executive Vice President of Football Operations and General Manager Andrew Berry told reporters at the Senior Bowl that he has no interest in trading six-time Pro Bowler Myles Garrett.

Late in the 2024 season, Garrett expressed frustration with the Browns’ 3-14 record.

“We feel really good about Myles obviously as a big piece of our future,” Berry said. “We’re looking forward to him being on the field. Like I said in my (early January) press conference, we envision him going from Cleveland to Canton when his career is over.”

Berry told media members that he would not even consider a trade that included two first-round picks coming back to Cleveland.

He also indicated that the team is open to a contract extension with Garrett in the future.

Garrett, who is under contract through the 2026 campaign, finished the season with the second-most sacks in the NFL with 14. He became the first player in NFL history to reach 14 or more sacks in four consecutive seasons. Garrett’s 102.5 career sacks are also the most by a Brown all-time.

The reigning NFL Defensive Player of the Year surpassed 100 career sacks in Week 16 and became the 45th player to do so in NFL history.

Garrett also is the first player since 1982 to have 100 career sacks prior to his 29th birthday.

Alongside his 14 sacks, he totaled 28 quarterback hits, had a league-high 22 tackles for loss and 84 quarterback pressures – the third-most in the league. He added one pass defensed, three forced fumbles and one fumble recovery.
