Myles Garrett has been a disruptive force in the trenches all year long for the Cleveland Browns and that continued in Week 14 against the Baltimore Ravens. Garrett got after Ravens' backup quarterback Tyler Huntley for a strip sack, which he managed to scoop up and return for a touchdown. Not only did the play extend Cleveland's lead over the rival Ravens, but it landed Garrett his own place in Cleveland Browns' lore.
RECORD-BREAKER

That was sack No. 15 on the year for Garrett, who can now lay claim to the title of the Browns' all-time single-season sack leader. He was previously tied with Reggie Camp who had 14.0 sacks during the 1984 season, but after his huge play in the first half on Sunday, Garrett is now the franchise's all-time single-season leader.

What better way to enter Cleveland's history books than with a scoop and score? Garrett did everything on that play, and showcased just how dangerous he is on the defensive line. Not only did he completely overpower the Ravens' offensive line, he forced the fumble from Huntley and managed to get the football and house it for six points. If ever a play was worthy of making history, it was that one.
Garrett is now the owner of three of the Browns' all-time single-season sack records, with his 2018 tally of 13.5 ranking third all-time in the organization, and his 12.0 sacks from 2020 ranking fifth.
Across 64 games in his career, Garrett has recorded an eye-opening 57.5 sacks, proving to have been well-worth the first overall pick the Browns used to draft him in 2017.
