Myles Garrett has racked up at least six speeding tickets in Cleveland area since 2017
Cleveland Browns All-Pro pass rusher Myles Garrett did not practice with the team on Wednesday after suffering injuries to his biceps and shoulder, as well as lacerations, stemming from his single-car accident in Medina County, Ohio on Monday. It is been reported that Garrett is expected to return to the team on Thursday and could even suit up for the team's Week 4 road contest against the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday.
Pro Football Talk's Josh Alper reported Thursday morning that the 26-year-old has been cited for failure to control his vehicle.
"The citation goes on to note that 'unsafe speed for the type of roadway being traveled appeared to be a contributing circumstance' to the crash, which saw Garrett’s Porsche flip over before coming to a stop," Alper wrote.
Earlier on Thursday morning, in a report by Pro Football Talk's Michael David Smith, it was noted that Garrett has a history of unsafe driving.
"Although police are still investigating the cause of this week’s crash, in which Garrett flipped his Porsche, WKYC reports that Garrett has at least six speeding tickets in the Cleveland area since 2017," Smith wrote. "On September 24 of last year, Garrett was stopped for driving 120 mph. The very next day, he was ticketed again, this time for driving 105 mph. Both of those infractions happened on Interstate 71 in suburban Cleveland, where the speed limit is 70 mph."
Garrett has recorded seven combined tackles, five quarterback hits and 3.0 sacks through the team's first three games in 2022.
