Myles Garrett and A.J. Brown traded, face high tax implications

Myles Garrett has been traded from the Cleveland Browns to the Los Angeles Rams, while A.J. Brown moves from the Philadelphia Eagles to the New England Patriots. Both players will see a significant increase in their state income tax liabilities due to the high tax rates in their new states. For Garrett, this could mean a rise in his annual state tax burden from approximately $1.1 million in Ohio to over $5.3 million in California. The trades occurred after the June 1 deadline, allowing teams to better manage their salary cap implications. Details on additional compensatory trades involving future draft picks are yet to be fully disclosed.
