Browns' Myles Garrett: Doesn't practice Thursday
Rotowire
Garrett (hip) didn't practice Thursday, Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
Garrett's practice participation level Friday will bear monitoring, as will his status on the team's official Week 1 injury report, which will likely tag the star defensive end with an injury designation. If Garrett's unavailable or limited Sunday against the Bengals, Cleveland will have an even tougher time slowing down Joe Burrow and Cincinnati's high-octane offense.
Browns general manager Andrew Berry said Tuesday that the team will not consider moving on from Garrett, who requested a trade in early February, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports.
"We respect and appreciate [Garrett]," Berry said, but clarified that "we're not interested in moving him." The Browns remain steadfast about wanting to retain the star edge rusher, with Berry having said in January that even an offer of two first-round picks wouldn't convince the team to budge. Still, Garrett said in his trade request that his top priority is to compete for a Super Bowl immediately, and Cleveland could be heading toward a rebuild. If both sides refuse to budge as the offseason progresses, it's possible Garrett will consider a holdout.

Browns' Myles Garrett: Makes trade request official
Rotowire
Garrett officially announced Monday his request to be traded by the Browns, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Garrett, the reigning NFL Defensive Player of the Year, said in his announcement: "The goal was never to go from Cleveland to Canton, it has always been to compete for and win a Super Bowl." The 29-year-old's trade request comes with the context of the Browns seemingly entering a rebuilding phase, with Deshaun Watson (Achilles) uncertain for the 2025 season, and Cleveland in the mix to potentially reset at the quarterback position, holding the No. 2 overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft. General manager Andrew Berry stated in late January that Garrett isn't on the trade block, specifying that even an offer of two first-round picks wouldn't move the needle, per Mary Kay Cabot of Cleveland.com, but the defensive end's superstar status gives him substantial leverage. Garrett has two years remaining on his current deal, with both seasons carrying roughly a $20 million cap hit.

Browns' Myles Garrett: Good to go against Baltimore
Rotowire
Garrett (thigh) does not carry an injury designation into Saturday's game against the Ravens, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
Garrett was a DNP in the first two sessions of the week due to a thigh issue, but his limited participation in Thursday's practice was enough for him to shed an injury tag heading into Saturday's regular-season finale. The All-Pro defensive end is coming off a two-sack performance against the Dolphins this past Sunday, which brought him up to 14.0 sacks on the season.

Browns' Myles Garrett: Sends message to organization
Rotowire
Garrett sent a message to the Cleveland organization Friday that he does not want to endure another rebuild, Jason Lloyd of The Athletic reports. "I'm not trying to rebuild. I'm trying to win right now," Garrett said. "I want that to be apparent when the season's over and we have those discussions."
Garrett is under team control for two seasons beyond the current one and has already been through one rebuild, which included his rookie season in 2017, when the Browns went 0-16. The star defensive lineman added that he wants to stay loyal to a team that has stuck by him, but Garrett, who turns 29 next weekend, is very much in "win now" mode. He cited the club's plans at quarterback as a major issue. Considering a failed gamble on Deshaun Watson, the uncertain status of running back Nick Chubb (foot), and a 3-11 record during a season that was supposed to include the postseason, the organization is need of a major roster makeover.

Garrett (back) did not participate in Thursday's practice, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
The back injury appears to be a new one for Garrett, as he wasn't listed on Wednesday's injury report. The veteran pass rusher has worked through various injuries all season, and his practice participation Friday will indicate his status heading into Sunday's AFC North clash against the Bengals.

Garrett (Achilles) didn't participate in Wednesday's practice, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.
The 28-year-old defensive end has been playing through this Achilles issue for the last two weeks, so holding him out of Wednesday's practice is most likely precautionary. Garrett's participation Thursday and Friday will provide the best indication on whether the 2023 Defensive Player of the Year can continue playing through his Achilles injury in the Browns' Week 6 matchup against the Eagles.

Browns' Myles Garrett: Misses practice, not ruled out
Rotowire
Coach Kevin Stefanski said Wednesday he "doesn't see" Garrett (foot/Achilles/thigh), who is not practicing, being ruled out for Sunday's road matchup against the Raiders, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.
Garrett is listed as a nonparticipant Wednesday due to a trio of injuries, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports. The star edge rusher underwent an MRI earlier this week and the results were clean, and Stefanski has also labeled him "day-to-day." Garrett concluded Cleveland's 21-15 loss to the Giants with just one tackle while playing a season-low 56 percent of defensive snaps. He'll have two more chances to get back on the practice field ahead of Sunday's game in Las Vegas.

Browns' Myles Garrett: MRI comes back clean
Rotowire
Garrett (foot/ankle) underwent an MRI on Monday that came back clean, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Garrett's injuries didn't appear to be too serious after head coach Kevin Stefanski labeled his star edge rusher as "day-to-day" earlier Monday, but the clean MRI offers some additional peace of mind. Though Garrett's practice time could be limited while he manages the foot and ankle injuries, the expectation seems to be that he'll be ready to play Sunday versus the Raiders.
