Rams Trade for Browns' Myles Garrett

The Los Angeles Rams have acquired three-time NFL Defensive Player of the Year Myles Garrett from the Cleveland Browns in a blockbuster trade.

The Rams reportedly will send edge rusher Jared Verse, a 2027 first-round pick and potentially additional draft compensation to Cleveland. Garrett, 30, signed a four-year, $160 million extension with the Browns last season but was traded after his contract was adjusted around free agency.

The move comes as the Rams continue to overhaul their defense this offseason. Garrett, a five-time first-team All-Pro selection, will join a defense that already added cornerback Trent McDuffie and signed Jaylen Watson. The Rams are now considered Super Bowl favorites after the trade, with their odds dropping to +650 at DraftKings. slot-chickenroad.org
