Browns trade Myles Garrett to Chargers for draft picks and young pass rusher

The Cleveland Browns have traded star pass rusher Myles Garrett to the Los Angeles Chargers. General Manager Andrew Berry, speaking at a press conference, indicated the move surprised even him, as trading Garrett was not initially part of the team's offseason plan. The Browns received young pass rusher Jared Verse, along with a first-round pick in 2027, a second-round pick in 2028, and a third-round pick in 2029. Berry noted that this unexpected opportunity was too significant to refuse, emphasizing the importance of both immediate and long-term goals in the trade.
