I've put together a detailed and engaging script covering Myles Garrett's record-breaking contract extension. Let me know if you'd like any adjustments or additional details!
Big news coming out of the NFL—Myles Garrett has just set a new benchmark for non-quarterback contracts, and it’s a massive one. The Cleveland Browns’ star defensive end has officially secured a historic four-year contract extension that cements his place as the highest-paid non-quarterback in league history. This deal is nothing short of groundbreaking, with an eye-popping $122.8 million guaranteed and an average annual salary of $40 million, bringing the total contract value to a staggering $204.8 million.
This move comes after some uncertainty regarding Garrett’s future in Cleveland. Just last month, the 2023 AP Defensive Player of the Year reportedly requested a trade, but the Browns made it clear they had no intention of letting their defensive cornerstone walk away. And now, with this blockbuster deal, Cleveland has made sure Garrett stays put—at least for the foreseeable future.

Since being drafted first overall in 2017, Garrett has been nothing short of dominant. Last season alone, he recorded 14 sacks and 22 tackles for loss, adding to his career total of 102.5 sacks in just eight seasons. His presence on the field is undeniable, and the Browns are betting big on his ability to continue disrupting offenses for years to come.
Garrett’s contract raises the bar for other elite non-quarterbacks in the league. Players like Bengals wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase and Cowboys pass rusher Micah Parsons, both of whom are expected to land massive deals soon, now have a new standard to aim for. In fact, Cincinnati has already hinted at plans to make Chase the highest-paid non-quarterback in the league, so this record may not stand for too long.
Despite his personal success, Garrett has only played in three playoff games with the Browns. Cleveland, historically one of the most struggling franchises in the NFL, hopes that keeping their defensive superstar locked in will be a crucial step in changing that narrative. With Garrett at the helm of their defense, the Browns are looking to become serious contenders in the AFC.
This deal signifies more than just a big payday—it’s a statement. The Browns are all-in on Myles Garrett, and they believe he’s the player who can help lead them to championship contention. Now, all eyes will be on Garrett to see if he can continue living up to the expectations that come with being the highest-paid defensive player in NFL history.
