  • Should be fine for offseason

    The oblique injury Garrett sustained during the playoffs shouldn't affect his offseason routine, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: Garrett suffered the injury during Sunday's 22-17 loss to Kansas City in the divisional round. He finished with 12 sacks in 14-regular season games and one more in two postseason appearances, earning his second Pro Bowl nod through four NFL seasons. Garrett is signed with the Browns through 2026, and he should enter 2021 as one of the Defensive Player of the Year favorites.

  • Injures oblique in loss

    Coach Kevin Stefanski said Garrett suffered an oblique injury during Sunday's 22-17 divisional-round loss to the Chiefs, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: Garrett picked up his oblique injury in the second half and toughed it out through much of Sunday's contest, ending the day with two solo tackles, one sack and two quarterback hits. At this time, there's no reason to believe that the star defensive end is in any danger of missing the start of offseason workouts or being limited. He notched 48 tackles (33 solo), 12 sacks, two defended passes, four forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries during 14 regular-season games in 2020.

  • Suiting up Sunday

    Garrett (shoulder) is active for Sunday's wild-card matchup against the Steelers, Andrew Gribble of the Browns' official site reports.

    Analysis: Garrett was officially listed as questionable for Sunday's contest, but there was never any real doubt about his availability for the Browns' first postseason game in 18 years. The star defensive end and game captain will work to make use of his game-wreaking abilities as a pass rusher against Ben Roethlisberger and the Steelers.

  • Questionable but expected to play

    Garrett (shoulder) is questionable for Sunday's wild-card round game against the Steelers, Andrew Gribble of the Browns' official site reports.

    Analysis: While Garrett's officially listed as questionable, coach Kevin Stefanski said Friday that he's confident Garrett will be able to play, per Scott Petrak of The Chronicle-Telegram. The first overall pick in the 2017 draft is arguably the most important player on Cleveland's defense, as his 12 sacks this year marked his third straight campaign with a double-digit total in the category.

  • Records sack in loss

    Garrett had four tackles, one sack, two quarterback hits and one pass defensed in Sunday's 23-16 loss to the Jets.

  • Has lingering COVID effects

    Garrett admitted he's still feeling the effects of COVID-19 which caused him to miss two games, Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Garrett said he continues breathing treatments over the days since his return two weeks ago against Tennessee. The edge rusher was visibly winded at times and played just 72 percent of the snaps (52 of 72) against the Titans before getting up to 90 percent (54 of 60) against the Ravens last week. "I'm not sure how long it's going to take for me to feel really 100 [percent] with my wind.

  • More expected Week 14

    Cleveland defensive coordinator Joe Woods expects Garrett to play more in Monday's game than he did last week, Nate Ulrich of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Garrett came off the reserve/COVID-19 list last week after missing two games and played 52 of 72 snaps (72 percent). Over the previous eight games in which the edge rusher has been available for the entire game, Garrett averaged 83 percent of the snaps. Woods expects to see normal usage in his second week back. "This week, he'll be in better shape. He'll have more practices under his belt and should be good to go," said Woods. Garrett is tied for third in the NFL with 10.5 sacks.

    Garrett had two tackles and a sack in Sunday's 41-35 win over Tennessee.

    Analysis: Garrett returned from a two-week stay on the COVID-19 list, played 52 of 72 snaps, and didn't miss a beat. He now has 10.5 sacks, which ranks tied for third in the NFL, 1.5 sacks behind leader T.J. Watt.

  • Expected to play Sunday

    Garrett returned to practice this week after being activated from the COVID-19 list and is expected to play Sunday against the Titans, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: Garrett was activated Tuesday, then practiced Wednesday and Thursday, prompting optimism from head coach Kevin Stefanski. "He looked good to me. We're going to make sure that we're smart about how we get him back out there. But checking in with him, he looked really good," said the coach. Garrett, who missed two games due to the illness, is tied for third in the NFL with 9.5 sacks and tied for second with four forced fumbles.

  • Joins active roster

    Garrett was activated off the reserve/COVID-19 list Tuesday.

    Analysis: After missing the previous two games due to COVID-19, the star defensive end is expected to return Week 13. The 24-year-old was leading the league in sacks prior to his illness and will serve as a strong asset to the Browns defense as the team takes on the Titans' impressive offense.

  • Expected to return Week 13

    Coach Kevin Stefanski said Monday that he expects Garrett (illness) to be activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list this week, Jake Trotter of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Garrett has missed the team's last two games while on the reserve list. This is an encouraging development, and his contributions to the pass rush would help cover some of the blemishes of playing without No. 1 cornerback Denzel Ward (calf). Garrett was enjoying a monster season prior to his hiatus, recording 31 tackles, 9.5 sacks, four forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries through nine games.

  • Won't return Week 12

    Coach Kevin Stefanski said Monday that Garrett (illness) won't return for the Week 12 matchup against Jacksonville, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: Garrett will remain in the league's COVID-19 protocol through Week 12 because the protocol requires 10 days away from the team, and his first positive test appears to have been last Friday. The 24-year-old defensive end will eye a return Week 13 against the Titans. Porter Gustin is expected to start at defensive end until Garrett returns, but Adrian Clayborn should handle a considerable workload as well.

  • Lands on COVID-19 list

    Garrett (illness) was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Friday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. He will miss Sunday's game against the Eagles.

    Analysis: The 24-year-old didn't practice Wednesday or Thursday due to what was believed to be a non-COVID-19-related illness, but the Browns announced Friday that he has since tested positive for the virus. No high-risk close contacts were identified since he was away from the facility this week. Garrett will be unavailable until he clears the league's COVID-19 protocols, but for now, the Browns aren't ruling him out beyond Sunday's game against the Eagles. Porter Gustin and Adrian Clayborn should see…read more

  • Misses another practice

    Garrett (illness) did not practice Thursday, Scott Petrak of the Cleveland Chronicle-Telegram reports.

    Analysis: Garrett has now missed two straight practices due to illness this week, but coach Kevin Stefanski has said that he's scheduled to return Friday, per Jake Trotter of ESPN.com. If Garrett is indeed able to retake the practice field prior to Sunday's game against the Eagles, it will bode well for his chances of suiting up.

  • Absent with illness

    Garrett (illness) is not practicing Wednesday, Tom Withers of the Associated Press reports.

    Analysis: Garrett is not one of the three Browns on the reserve/COVID-19 list, which bodes well for his chances of playing Week 11. The star defensive end will look to resume practicing as Sunday's game against the Eagles looms closer.

  • Makes impact in win

    Garrett had six tackles, half a sack and two tackles for losses in Sunday's 10-7 win over the Texans.

    Analysis: Garrett was coming off a Week 8 knee injury but looked in fine form Sunday after getting the bye week to recover. He once again had a key stop that helped swing the game to the Browns. In the second quarter, Garrett dropped Houston's Deshaun Watson on a quarterback draw for a two-yard loss on fourth down inside Cleveland's five-yard line. He's up to 9.5 sacks over nine games.

  • Good to go Sunday

    Cleveland head coach Kevin Stefanski said Garrett "should be good to go" Sunday against the Texans, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: Garrett, who injured his knee and was removed from Week 8's game against the Raiders, has not been listed on the injury report at all this week as the Browns prepare for Week 10. He had also been dealing with wrist and ankle injuries prior to the Raiders game but looks ready to play Sunday.

    Garrett (knee) returned to practice Monday, Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Garrett sustained the knee injury in Week 8's loss to the Raiders, while also was dealing with wrist and ankle injuries. The expectation is that Garrett will suit up Week 10 at home against the Texans, who rank ninth in sacks allowed.

  • MRI brings good news

    Coach Kevin Stefanski said Garrett (knee) has no structural issues after undergoing an MRI on Monday, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

    Analysis: Stefanski relayed after Sunday's loss to the Raiders that the 24-year-old was dealing with knee pain, but he should be able to play after the Browns' bye this week. Garrett entered the contest with an ankle issue and was limited to 46 percent of defensive snaps due to the injuries, but he'll now have some extra time to recover before the Week 10 matchup with Houston.

  • Will undergo MRI

    Coach Kevin Stefanski said that Garrett will have an MRI on Monday to determine the severity of a knee injury he suffered in the second quarter of Sunday's loss to the Raiders, Jake Trotter of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Garrett battled an ankle injury during the practice week, but he appeared ready to handle his normal workload Sunday. Stefanski relayed that Garrett's knee injury was very painful but isn't related to his ankle injury. Although his snap count was limited following the injury, Garrett finished the game and contributed on clear passing downs. That bodes well for Garrett's availability following the Week 9 bye, but Monday's MRI will provide more detail on the nature of his injury.

  • Set for normal workload

    Garrett is prepared to handle a normal workload Sunday against the Raiders, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: Garrett was a limited participant at Friday's practice after sitting out Wednesday and Thursday with what was described as a tweaked ankle. An early leader for AFC Defensive Player of the Year, Garrett earned the award as AFC Defensive Player of the Month for October on Thursday on the strength of six sacks, two strip-sacks and 14 tackles. Cleveland and Las Vegas kick off at 1:00 ET.

  • Ready to rock

    Garrett (ankle) does not have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Raiders, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: Garrett practiced on a limited basis Friday after having been held out Wednesday and Thursday, all while nursing a tweaked ankle sustained Week 7. His complete lack of an injury designation implies that the issue won't hold him back at all Sunday. Garrett is in the midst of a monstrous season, as he already has nine sacks and four forced fumbles through seven games. He'll work to keep up his momentum -- and potential Defensive Player of the Year candidacy -- versus Las Vegas.

  • Expected to practice Friday

    Cleveland head coach Kevin Stefanski expects Garrett (ankle) to practice Friday, Scott Patsko of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Garrett sat out the first two practices with what Stefanski confirmed was a tweaked ankle suffered last week against the Bengals. The injury does not sound serious, and the Browns expect Garrett on the field for Sunday's 1:00 ET kickoff against the Raiders.

  • Absent from practice again

    Garrett (ankle) isn't participating in Thursday's practice, Jake Trotter of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Instead, Garrett will take part in an individual workout inside the Browns' training facility, marking the second straight day that he's been away from the main group this week. Despite Garrett's lack of team reps, head coach Kevin Stefanski reaffirmed Thursday that he's confident the star defensive end will be ready to play Sunday against the Raiders.

  • Missing from practice

    Garrett isn't practicing Wednesday due to an ankle injury, but coach Kevin Stefanski said the team is "just being cautious" with the star pass rusher, Scott Petrak of The Chronicle-Telegram reports.

    Analysis: Stefanski's comments suggest there's little cause for concern here, though seeing Garrett back out at practice Thursday would help put any doubts about his status for Sunday's game against the Raiders to rest. With nine sacks through seven games, Garrett has thus far justified the Browns' decision to hand him a five-year, $125 million extension this offseason.

  • Extends sack streak

    Garrett recorded three tackles, two sacks and forced a fumble in Sunday's 37-34 win over the Bengals.

    Analysis: Garrett extended his sack streak to six games and has nine for the season. That moves him ahead of the Rams' Aaron Donald, who has 7.5 entering Monday's game against the Bears. He also had three quarterback pressures, but Garrett's more than just a nuisance to quarterbacks. He's also had a nose for the ball in 2020 with four forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries.

    Garrett had four tackles, one sack and three quarterback hits in Sunday's 32-23 win over the Colts.

    Analysis: Garrett dropped Indianapolis quarterback Phillip Rivers in the first quarter, giving him sacks in four straight contests. A bigger play came later in the fourth quarter after the Colts trimmed a three-score deficit to one. Garrett got to Rivers in the end zone, forcing the quarterback to throw the ball away, which resulted in an intentional grounding penalty and a safety.

    Garrett will face a Colts' offensive line in Week 5 that will be without Pro Bowl left tackle Anthony Castonzo, Ellis L. Williams of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Garrett feasted on a backup tackle last week when he recorded two sacks against the Cowboys, including a third straight game with a strip sack. With five sacks on the season, Garrett lines up against Indianapolis backup tackle Le'Raven Clark.

  • Tacks on two more sacks

    Garrett posted three tackles, two sacks and a forced fumble in Sunday's 49-38 win over the Cowboys.

    Analysis: Garrett has been a menace this year with a whopping 13 quarterback pressures, three forced fumbles and a league-high five sacks through four games. He's making an early case for Defensive Player of the Year and should comfortably hit double-digit sacks for a third straight season.

  • Disruptive Week 3

    Garrett recorded four tackles, two sacks and recovered a fumble in Sunday's 34-20 win over Washington in Week 3.

    Analysis: For the second straight week, Garrett caused a fumble on a scak that led to important points in a Cleveland win. Per Next Gen Stats, Garrett had seven pressures, which led to three of the Browns' five turnovers. After a quiet Week 1, he's posted sacks in each of the following two weeks.

  • Quiet Week 1

    Garrett recorded one tackle, a quarterback hit and recovered a fumble in Sunday's 38-6 loss to the Ravens in Week 1.

    Analysis: Baltimore quarterback Lamar Jackson was more than Garrett and the rest of the Browns' defense could handle Week 1. Garrett should finish among the league's sack leaders, so don't be discouraged by the results against a dangerous opponent.

    Garrett (wrist) wasn't listed on Wednesday's injury report, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: When Garrett first missed practice with this wrist injury, coach Kevin Stefanski relayed that he was simply being cautious with the superstar defensive end. Wednesday's report confirms that, and Garrett should log a full workload in Sunday's game versus the Ravens. Last season, he averaged 55.5 defensive snaps over 10 games and recorded 29 tackles, 10 sacks and two forced fumbles.

  • Returns to practice

    Garrett (wrist) participated in practice Tuesday, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

    Analysis: Garrett was absent from Sunday's session due to a wrist concern. When he took the field for individual drills Tuesday, he was donning a brace on his right wrist, but the defensive end removed it after only a handful of reps. Despite this fact, Garrett didn't take part in a pass-rush drill in which other D-linemen weaved through heavy bags. Look for the 24-year-old to continue ramping up his activity level with an eye toward the Browns' season opener in Baltimore on Sept. 13.

  • Misses practice Sunday

    Garrett was held out of practice Sunday with a wrist ailment, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

  • Practices in pads

    Garrett practiced in pads for the first time Monday, Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Garrett was slowed by a hamstring injury earlier in camp, so his participation in pads represents progress. Coming off a suspension-marred season in which he recorded 10 sacks in nine games, Garrett is motivated to stay out of trouble in 2020 and play a full schedule.

  • Back at practice Saturday

    Garrett (hamstring) is expected to participate in Saturday's practice, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: Garrett missed a couple of practices earlier last week after straining his hamstring running but will make his return to the field Saturday. The 2017 No. 1 overall pick has played just one full season in his three-year career to date, but he's accumulated double-digit sacks in back-to-back seasons.

  • Logs individual work

    Garrett (hamstring) participated in individual drills during Thursday's practice, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Garrett had missed a number of practices since suffering a hamstring injury earlier this month, so it's encouraging to see him back to work in some capacity. It doesn't appear that the star defensive end is in any danger of missing Week 1's tilt against Baltimore. As long as he's on the field, Garrett will be a premier fantasy option in IDP formats.

  • Suffers hamstring injury

    Garrett recently sustained a hamstring injury, but head coach Kevin Stefanski is "not overly concerned" about it, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Stafanski also called it a tweak, so it doesn't appear to be a severe injury that would impact his availability for the season opener against Baltimore on Sept. 13. It's worth keeping an eye on Garrett's progress through training camp, and the Browns likely won't rush him back after signing the defensive end to a five-year, $125 million deal in July.

  • Signs massive extension

    Garrett signed a five-year, $125 million contract extension Wednesday, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: The deal locks up Garrett through the 2026 season. In Garrett, the Browns have one of the more disruptive edge rushers in the NFL. He finished with 10 sacks over 10 games in 2019 before being suspended for the final six games following an on-field incident in Pittsburgh. Garrett was reinstated by the NFL in February and will head into his fourth NFL season with 30.5 sacks in 37 career games.

  • Getting close to extension

    The Browns and Garrett are close to agreeing to a contract extension, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: The Browns exercised the fifth-year option on his rookie deal back in April, as expected, but this new deal will lock him in through the 2026 season. Aside from his suspension to close out 2019, he's been eminently productive, racking up 30.5 sacks in 37 career games to date.

    Analysis: Garrett is the leader of the Browns' defensive line, an area of strength on the team, and he was on his way to becoming the 2019 Defensive Player of the Year before an ugly incident against Pittsburgh prompted an indefinite suspension. He was reinstated during the offseason and will be available for 2020. The Browns then exercised the fifth-year option on this contract, so Garrett is in house until 2021, but Cleveland wants him around longer than that. He's compiled 30.5 sacks over 37 career…read more

  • Gets fifth-year option, as expected

    The Browns are exercising the fifth-year option on Garrett's contract, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: This was a foregone conclusion for Garrett, who has 65 QB hits, 30.5 sacks and six forced fumbles in 35 NFL games. The next step is to sign him to a long-term contract, one that may challenge for a new league record among non-quarterbacks.

  • Reinstated by NFL

    The NFL reinstated Garrett from his suspension Wednesday, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Garrett met with NFL commissioner Roger Goodell on Monday to discuss reinstatement from his indefinite suspension. The league office didn't take long to sign off, allowing the superstar defensive end to return to action for the 2020 preseason as well as the beginning of the regular season. Garrett missed the final six games of 2019 after he was suspended for swinging a helmet at Steelers quarterback Mason Rudolph in Week 11. The 25-year-old pass rusher rejoins a team with a new head coach…read more

  • Meets with commissioner

    Garrett met with NFL commissioner Roger Goodell on Monday to discuss a possible reinstatement from his indefinite suspension, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: While there's still no timeline for the decision, we should have clarity soon on how long Garrett's ban will last. The 24-year-old defensive end already sat out the final six games of the 2019 season for swinging a helmet at Mason Rudolph's head in Week 11. Until his suspension is lifted, Garrett is ineligible to participate in the Browns' offseason program.

  • Set to discuss reinstatement

    Garrett is scheduled to meet with NFL commissioner Roger Goodell within the next 60 days to discuss the possibility of reinstatement from his indefinite suspension, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Goodell declined to divulge details about the upcoming meeting during his Super Bowl press conference Wednesday, but it at least represents a step toward Garrett eventually resuming his career. The 24-year-old missed the final six games of the 2019 season after receiving an indefinite suspension for swinging a helmet at the unprotected head of Steelers quarterback Mason Rudolph during a Week 11 win. As long as Garrett's suspension remains in place, he won't be eligible to participate in the…read more

  • Indefinite suspension upheld

    The NFL announced Thursday that Garrett's appeal of his indefinite suspension has been upheld.

    Analysis: Appeals officers Derrick Brooks and James Thrash apparently didn't find Garrett's argument for a reduced ban convincing, so the defensive end will officially be out for the final six games of the 2019 season, plus any playoff games that may follow. Garrett will have to apply for reinstatement in the offseason before the NFL rules on his status for the 2020 campaign. In the meantime, the Browns will rely more heavily on Olivier Vernon (knee), Chad Thomas and Chris Smith to provide most of the…read more

  • Suspended for remainder of season

    The NFL announced in a statement Friday that Garrett has been suspended indefinitely, "at a minimum for the remainder of the regular season and postseason."

    Analysis: Garrett will face a stiff punishment, both in terms of games and dollars, as a result of his actions near the end of Thursday's win over the Steelers. As a result, the Browns will be without their top defensive player for the rest of the year, barring a successful appeal by Garrett's side.

  • Likely facing suspension

    Garrett was ejected on the final drive of the Browns' 21-7 win over the Steelers on Thursday after his involvement in a brawl. He ripped off the helmet of Pittsburgh quarterback Mason Rudolph during a scuffle and then swung the helmet and hit Rudolph in the head. Garrett is likely to face a suspension for his actions, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Expect the NFL to levy punishment on Garrett within the next few days, with the defensive end potentially in line to miss the rest of the season for hitting an unprotected player in the head. Steelers center Maurkice Pouncey and Browns defensive tackle Larry Ogunjobi were also ejected in the ensuing scuffle.

  • Added to injury report

    Garrett was added to Friday's injury report with a knee injury, but he was a full participant and is expected to play Week 10 against the Bills, Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Garrett, who ranks second in the league with 10 sacks, should be an IDP candidate against Buffalo, which ranks 13th in sacks allowed with 22 over eight games. As an added incentive to roll with Garrett, he'll be tracking quarterback Josh Allen, who is tied for second in fumbles (10) and has lost three of them.
