Myles Garrett didn’t have an easy time at Sunday’s game against the Denver Broncos.
Cleveland Browns defensive end Myles Garrett “felt a pop” in his left shoulder throughout Sunday’s 29-17 loss to the Denver Broncos and left the game in a sling.
After the game, he told reporters that the severity of his injury isn’t clear and will undergo an MRI on Monday to find out. Garrett vowed to continue fighting despite the setback.
He finished off the game with the injury and stated, “I’m not gonna come out unless it’s falling off.”
This injury’s a potential blow for Garrett and a Browns team that has already lost All-Pro running back Nick Chubb and quarterback Deshaun Watson to season-ending injuries. Garrett was the betting favorite to win NFL Defensive Player of the Year honors since Sunday.
A four-time All-Pro and Pro Bowler, Garrett’s in the middle of a career season with a league-leading 13 sacks through 11 games. He has also tallied 30 tackles, 4 forced fumbles, and a fumble recovery.
The Browns went into Sunday on a three-game win streak and fell to 7-4 with Sunday’s loss. They remain in the playoff hunt despite the injuries but face a tough road to the postseason without their starting quarterback and running back, and the possible loss of their best defender. They have remaining games against the Rams, Jaguars, Bears, Texans, Jets, and Bengals.
