When Myles Garrett inked his four-year contract extension with the Browns, a record deal at the time and one that brought a close to his offseason trade request, it signaled that he was comfortable remaining with Cleveland for the long term. What followed was another losing season for the Browns, who are 4-12 entering a Week 18 game against the Bengals.
Individually, Garrett has been spectacular; with 22 sacks, he is just a half-sack behind the single season sack record held by Michael Strahan and T.J. Watt. The team, however, continues to spin its wheels, calling into question the future of coach Kevin Stefanski—who will finish with his fourth losing season in six campaigns (with the other two resulting in NFL Coach of the Year honors).
