Myles Garrett's new contract extension didn't just ensure his return to the Cleveland Browns, but has completely reset the market for top defensive players and non-quarterbacks. Garrett and the Browns agreed to a four-year contract extension worth $40 million per year with $123.5 million guaranteed, making him the NFL's highest-paid defensive player—by a significant margin.
The historic contract caught the attention of many, including Dallas Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons. Parsons, who is expected to sign a contract extension this offseason, reacted to the deal on X. "Lol yooo wtf," Parsons wrote.
