Should make quick recovery
Garrett will not need surgery on his dislocated toe suffered during Sunday's Pro Bowl, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Garrett should have a quick recovery time and be able to participate in the team's offseason program, as his toe was easily put back into place. The star pass rusher tied a career-best 16 sacks during his 2022 campaign along with a career-high 60 tackles (37 solo) and four passes defended.

Suffers toe injury in Pro Bowl
Garrett sustained a dislocated toe on his right foot while participating in Sunday's Pro Bowl festivities, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
Analysis: Garrett was named to the Pro Bowl for the third year in a row after tying his career high for sacks in 2022 with 16. However, the 27-year-old was seen limping off the field after he dislocated his toe at some point during the NFL's updated Pro Bowl events Sunday, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. This issue should not prove overly severe given that immediate X-rays on Garrett's injured toe did come back negative, per Cabot. Nevertheless, it still will be worth monitoring for potential…read more

Ties personal sack record
Garrett made seven tackles, including a sack, two tackles for loss and two quarterback hits in a 28-14 loss to the Steelers in Week 18.
Analysis: The sack was Garrett's 16th, tying the personal mark for sacks in a single season he set in 2021. He played through injury but only missed one game following his involvement in an automobile accident leading up to Week 4. It was a shoulder injury and lingered a bit, but Garrett remained productive. He's been available for 33 of 34 games the last two years, and, at age 26 next season, Garrett is still in his prime and should continue to be a dominant presence.

Shows up in Week 17
Garrett recorded eight tackles (four solo) and 1.5 sacks in Sunday's 24-10 win over the Commanders.
Analysis: After playing a season-low 36 defensive snaps in Week 16 against the Saints, Garrett ramped up to 52 snaps (75 percent) this past weekend versus Washington and logged the most tackles he's had in a game since Week 4 of his sophomore campaign. The All-Pro defensive end's 53 stops on the year now accounts for a new career high in that department, and if he's able to register one sack in the Browns' regular-season finale versus Pittsburgh, he'd then have back-to-back seasons with 16 sacks.

Benched to begin Week 16
Garrett didn't play the first defensive series of Saturday's 17-10 loss to the Saints because of a "team thing," Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports. "That was just a team thing," Cleveland head coach Kevin Stefanski said Monday. "That was my decision."
Analysis: Garrett played 36 of a possible 54 snaps (67 percent) -- a season low in snaps and his second-lowest percentage in 14 games played -- and finished with three tackles. The Browns didn't elaborate on what team protocol was violated. The star edge rusher was on the field for the Saints' second offensive possession.

No designation for Week 16
Garrett (illness) doesn't have a designation for Saturday's game against the Saints after he returned to practice Thursday as a limited participant, Anthony Poisal of the Browns' official site reports.
Analysis: Garrett and running back Nick Chubb (foot) both missed the Browns' first two days of practice this week, and even though neither took full reps Thursday, the team saw enough to clear the two standout players heading into the weekend. In the matchup with the Saints, Garrett will be taking aim at what could be banged-up offensive line. New Orleans placed starting right guard Cesar Ruiz (foot) on injured reserve earlier this week, and starting left guard Andrus Peat (illness) is iffy for…read more

Dealing with illness, listed as DNP
Garrett (illness) was listed as a non-participant on Tuesday's practice estimate, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.
Analysis: Although Cleveland didn't host an official practice Tuesday, Garrett wouldn't have suited up for it anyway following his DNP designation on Tuesday's report due to an illness. The 2017 No. 1 overall draft pick will now have until Saturday to overcome his sickness before the Browns host the Saints.

Bothers Burrow again
Garrett had six tackles, two sacks, three tackles for a loss and three quarterback hits in Sunday's 23-10 loss to the Bengals.
Analysis: Garrett, who had a half-sack wiped out on a penalty, has sacked Cincinnati quarterback Joe Burrow in every game the signal-caller has played against Cleveland. The edge rusher is up to 12 sacks through 12 games. Garrett, who has recorded multiple sacks five times this season, has four more games to reach his season-high sack total of 16 set last season.

Adds to sack total
Garrett had three tackles, 1.5 sacks and three quarterback hits in Sunday's 23-17 overtime win over Tampa Bay in Week 12.
Analysis: Garrett's full sack was a big third-down stop in overtime and preceded the drive that produced Nick Chubb's game-winning touchdown run. The elite edge rusher has recorded sacks in five of the last six games and is up to 10 for the season, his sixth consecutive year with double-digit quarterback takedowns.

Part of defensive rebound in win
Garrett had two tackles, 1.5 sacks, four quarterback hits and one pass defensed in Monday's 32-13 win over Cincinnati in Week 8.
Analysis: Garrett and the rest of the previously maligned Browns defense made life miserable for Joe Burrow, dropping him five times and hitting him on another seven dropbacks. Garrett, who had a lingering shoulder injury during the practice week, was on the field for 42 snaps (79 percent). He's recorded 4.5 sacks over the last three games and is looking like the disruptive force he was prior to an automobile accident that forced him to miss Week 4.

Set to play Monday night
Garrett (shoulder) was a full participant at practice Saturday and carries no game status designation ahead of Monday's game versus Cincinnati, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
Analysis: Garrett missed back-to-back practices during the week leading up to Monday's game, but it appears he'll be ready to roll for Week 8. The two-time All-Pro will have a juicy matchup against a Bengals offensive line that's allowed 25 sacks through seven games so far this season.

Back-to-back DNPs
Garrett (shoulder) didn't practice Friday, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
Analysis: Garrett has been a non-participant in back-to-back sessions to start Week 8 prep due to a shoulder injury. It's possible the absences are merely precautionary as he works his way back to full strength following an automobile accident, but his lack of participation in any capacity is still concerning. He'll have one more opportunity to practice before the team needs to make a decision on his status for Monday's matchup against the Bengals.

Records sack in loss
Garrett recorded four tackles and one sack in Sunday's 23-20 loss to Baltimore in Week 7.
Analysis: Garrett is getting back to being a disruptor after missing one game due to a shoulder injury as a result of an automobile accident. That shoulder forced him to leave last week's loss to New England early, but he was in for 80 percent of the defensive snaps Sunday. Garrett has three sacks over the last two weeks and six for the season.

Logs two sacks
Garrett (shoulder) compiled five tackles (three solo), two sacks and a forced fumble in the Browns' 38-15 loss to the Patriots on Sunday.
Analysis: It was Garrett's second two-sack performance of the season, as he also accomplished the feat in Week 1 against the Panthers. Garrett now has 15 tackles (10 solo), five sacks, two forced fumbles and a pass defensed on the season. Despite suffering a shoulder injury and missing the final five minutes of the game, the star defensive end thinks he'll be able to play Sunday against the Ravens.

Expects to play in Week 7
Garrett (shoulder) expects to play next week after leaving Sunday's contest early with a shoulder injury.
Analysis: Garrett left the Browns' Week 6 loss to the Patriots in the fourth quarter after sustaining a shoulder injury, but the 26-year-old is confident he'll be ready to go Week 7 versus Baltimore. His status at practice will be worth monitoring this week and if he can't go, Isaac Rochell could step into a starting role.

Aggravates shoulder injury
Garrett missed the final five-plus minutes of Sunday's 38-15 loss to New England after aggravating a shoulder injury, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.
Analysis: Garrett, who had been dealing with shoulder and biceps injuries during the practice week, played well Sunday, recording five tackles and two sacks. He left the game following his second sack. When asked following the game if he would play next week against Baltimore, the edge rusher proclaimed, "I was playing [Sunday], and I'll be playing next week." He first suffered the injuries in an automobile accident Sept. 26 and has been dealing with lingering soreness since.

Garrett recorded two tackles in Week 5's 30-28 loss to the Chargers.
Analysis: This was Garrett's first game back following shoulder and biceps injuries as a result of an automobile accident. The edge rusher played 58 of 71 (82 percent) of the defensive snaps. That's on par with his season share of 85 percent.

Garrett (shoulder/biceps) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Chargers, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
Analysis: Garrett was injured in a car accident Sept. 26 and was unavailable for last week's loss to Atlanta. Although he was limited in practice all week, he'll be able to return to action following a one-game absence. Over his first three appearances of the season, he tallied seven tackles (five solo), including three sacks, a forced fumble and a pass defense.

Resumes practicing
Garrett (shoulder/biceps) is participating in Wednesday's practice and has a decent chance to play Sunday against the Chargers, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
Analysis: Garrett may ultimately be listed as a limited participant on Wednesday's injury report, but it's encouraging to see him already back on the field. He suffered a sprained left shoulder, strained right biceps and lacerations on his right wrist in a one-car crash last week, per Cabot. The Browns also didn't have Jadeveon Clowney (ankle) available Week 4.

Could play Week 5
The Browns are optimistic that Garrett (shoulder/biceps) will be able to suit up Week 5 versus the Chargers, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Garrett is already ruled out for Sunday's contest in Atlanta, but it looks like there's optimism his absence could be limited to one game. The standout pass rusher is recovering from shoulder and bicep injuries sustained in a one-car crash Monday. Garrett being out of the lineup, as well as Jadeveon Clowney (ankle) being listed as questionable, could bode well for Marcus Mariota's ability to operate in a clean pocket Week 4.

The Browns preemptively ended the suspense, ruling Garrett out ahead of Sunday's clash with the Falcons.

Garrett (neck) doesn't have an injury designation for Thursday's game against the Steelers, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.
Analysis: Garrett sat out Tuesday's practice and was a limited participant in Wednesday's session, but that won't keep him from playing on a short week.

Garrett had one tackle and one sack in Week 18's 21-16 win over the Bengals.
Analysis: Garrett played just 31 snaps (61 percent) in the season finale and felt the impact of a recent groin injury suffered in Week 15 down the stretch. Over the next three games, he recorded just three tackles and one sack. For the season, Garrett and Jadeveon Clowney formed a formidable edge duo, which led to Garrett setting a franchise-record 16 sacks.

Analysis: It's fair to say that while Garrett doesn't carry an injury designation into Monday's contest, the groin injury that has limited the defensive end's explosiveness likely will still be an issue as the rest of the season progresses.

Analysis: The star pass rusher injured his groin in Monday's loss to the Raiders and has been unable to practice Tuesday through Thursday, though the Browns have only had walk-through sessions this week while the team faces a quick turnaround for its Week 16 contest, which was caused in part by a COVID-19 outbreak that resulted in Cleveland's Week 15 game being pushed back in the schedule two days.

Scores first TD in win
Garrett had three tackles, a sack, a forced fumble and a fumble return for a 15-yard touchdown in Sunday's 24-22 win over the Ravens.
Analysis: Garrett provided what turned out to be the key play in Cleveland's win that gave life to its playoff chances. He circled behind quarterback Tyler Huntley and forced the ball loose as the quarterback attempted to throw. After a few lineman couldn't get their mitts on the ball, Garrett scooped it up and returned it to the house untouched.

Analysis: Garrett didn't practice Wednesday or Thursday, but he was able to return in a limited fashion Friday. The limited practice apparently was enough for the Browns to rule him healthy for Sunday's matchup against the Patriots. Garrett has played in all nine contests this season and has totaled 12 sacks, including at least one sack in five straight games.

Garrett had two tackles (one solo) and 1.5 sacks during Sunday's 41-16 win over the Bengals.
Analysis: Garrett was productive as usual during Sunday's divisional win, and with 12 sacks through nine contests, it now looks all but inevitable that he surpasses his previous career-high mark of 13.5 sacks.

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.

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.

Team working to extend
The Browns are working on a long-term extension for Garrett, Terry Pluto of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
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.
