Browns trading 2-time AP Defensive Player of the Year Myles Garrett to Rams, AP sources say

The Cleveland Browns are trading two-time AP NFL Defensive Player of the Year Myles Garrett to the Los Angeles Rams in exchange for pass rusher Jared Verse, a 2027 first-round draft pick, and other assets. Garrett, frustrated with the Browns' recent performance, had demanded a trade after the 2024 season despite signing a $204.8 million contract extension in March 2024. The trade is pending finalization.
