Rams acquire Myles Garrett from Browns to enhance defense

The Los Angeles Rams traded for Myles Garrett from the Cleveland Browns, significantly boosting their defense ahead of the 2026 season. The Rams sent pass rusher Jared Verse and a first-round pick to secure the 2025 NFL Defensive Player of the Year. This offseason, they also added new cornerbacks Trent McDuffie and Jaylen Watson to address weaknesses in their secondary. With Garrett joining a defense that had already shown promise, the Rams aim to compete for the Super Bowl after falling in the NFC Championship Game.
