Browns trade Myles Garrett to Rams, consider Denzel Ward next
Summary

The Cleveland Browns traded Myles Garrett to the Los Angeles Rams, a significant shift as they look towards the future. This deal comes as the team prepares for a challenging 2026 season with uncertain quarterback prospects. Analyst Tony Grossi suggests Denzel Ward could be the next star player on the trading block, aiming to gather more draft picks for upcoming seasons. Ward, who carries a hefty cap hit in 2027, may be dealt either in November or March to maximize the team’s roster potential. The Browns are focusing on building a young core, with an eye on the 2027 draft class, which is expected to be strong at the quarterback position.
