"Myles Garrett Is Gonna Get Traded": Craig Carton Drops Bombshell on Browns DR's Future Despite Team's Stance
Browns GM Andrew Berry denies contract changes relate to trading Myles Garrett despite contract tweaks that ease trade logistics, Garrett holds a no-trade clause.
- Cleveland Browns General Manager Andrew Berry addressed trade rumors on Sunday at the NFL owners' meetings in Phoenix, stating that recent contract modifications are unrelated to a potential departure for Defensive Player Myles Garrett.
- The Browns quietly modified Garrett's contract, shifting his $29.2 million roster bonus from March to seven days before the regular season, allowing dead cap to split between 2026 and 2027 seasons if a trade occurs after June 1.
- NFL Network insider Mike Garafolo and ESPN's Schefter acknowledged the contract adjustments undeniably make a trade easier, though both reported the Browns remain adamant: "It was not on the table last year. It is not on the table again this year," Garafolo said.
- Garrett holds a full no-trade clause in his four-year deal, meaning he must personally approve any transaction. "Myles is a career Brown," Berry said, emphasizing the organization's commitment to the star defender.
- Despite the organization's public insistence that contract moves were purely for cap flexibility, media voices like Craig Carton continue speculating the franchise is "open for business" for Garrett, sustaining trade rumors regardless of official denials.
