Myles Garrett is staying in Cleveland after the Browns gave him a record four-year deal that makes the four-time All-Pro edge rusher the highest-paid non-quarterback in NFL history.
A person with knowledge of the details told The Associated Press that Garrett’s deal includes $122.8 million guaranteed, an average annual salary of $40 million with a total value of $204.8 million. The person spoke Sunday on condition of anonymity because terms weren’t announced.
Garrett, the 2023 AP Defensive Player of the Year, had asked for a trade last month but the Browns were adamant about keeping the 29-year-old star in Cleveland.
