Rams Blockbuster Trade for Myles Garrett Comes with Unexpected Setback

The Browns get Jared Verse and three future picks in a deal that follows Garrett’s NFL sack record and reshapes their rebuild.

  • Last week, the Cleveland Browns traded star defensive end Myles Garrett to the Los Angeles Rams in exchange for rising edge rusher Jared Verse and three future draft picks, including a 2027 first-rounder.
  • General Manager Andrew Berry previously emphasized his intent for Garrett to be a 'one helmet player,' but the organization ultimately decided the trade package offered by the Rams provided too much value to ignore.
  • Cleveland views Verse, the 2024 Defensive Rookie of the Year, as a foundational piece; the 25-year-old has produced 124 tackles and 12 sacks over two seasons, with sources valuing him at a 'first-round pick-plus.'
  • On Monday in Woodland Hills, Garrett participated in his first Rams OTA practice, where defensive coordinator Chris Shula stated the scheme change would not hinder him, adding, 'We're going to let him do what he does best.'
  • Garrett's arrival has fueled speculation regarding whether Rams legend Aaron Donald might emerge from retirement; while teammates like safety Quentin Lake have jokingly encouraged a return, Donald, 35, has remained noncommittal, texting media members about gauging if he still has the 'fire' to play.
