Rams Acquire Star DE Garrett from Browns

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 receive Garrett in exchange for edge rusher Jared Verse, a 2027 first-round pick and potentially additional draft compensation, according to NFL Network and ESPN. Garrett, 30, signed a four-year, $160 million extension with Cleveland last season and set the NFL record with 23 sacks in a season.

Verse, who won NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year in 2024, heads to Cleveland. The Rams, now Super Bowl favorites, continue their defensive overhaul after previously acquiring cornerback Trent McDuffie and signing Jaylen Watson in free agency. sport-ipl.my
