Browns trade Myles Garrett to Rams amid ongoing quarterback search
Summary

The Cleveland Browns have traded defensive end Myles Garrett to the Los Angeles Rams on June 1, marking a major shift for the franchise. This trade follows Garrett's public request for a deal in February 2025 and comes in the wake of the Browns' controversial acquisition of quarterback Deshaun Watson. In return, the Browns received defensive end Jared Verse and multiple draft picks, including a first-rounder in 2027. Critics question whether the team maximized Garrett's value in the trade, given his stature as a seven-time Pro Bowler and a key player in franchise history.
