Myles Garrett played nine seasons for the Cleveland Browns, earning 125.5 sacks and seven Pro Bowls.
What happened?
The Browns recently traded Garrett, and a report by Mary Kay Cabot stated he was respected but not universally loved by his teammates.
Why it matters for Myles Garrett
Harrison and Haden pushed back on this report, arguing that Garrett's personality was not the issue, but rather the team's instability and lack of success.
Garrett gave the Browns elite production, including a single-season sack record with 23.0 sacks in the last season.
The team still finished with a miserable 5-12 record, which Harrison attributes to the quarterback shuffle, with 16 different quarterbacks in nine years.
What comes next?
Haden believes the numbers matter most, and Garrett's stats speak for themselves, making him a leader by example.
Harrison warns that the Browns' mistakes could affect Jared Verse, the pass rusher who replaced Garrett, and take away his optimism and hope for success.
Verse has known immense success with the Los Angeles Rams, earning the NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year in 2024 and making his second straight Pro Bowl in 2025.
The Browns are going through the same issues this offseason, which could impact Verse's performance and leadership.
Garrett's legacy with the Browns is still debated, but his stats and achievements are undeniable, with two Defensive Players of the Year awards and seven Pro Bowls.
