After a bonkers weekend of NBA trade action, the NFL has started to get in on the drama. Cleveland Browns edge rusher Myles Garrett, who is a finalized and favorite for his second-straight NFL Defensive Player of the Year Award.
Former Pro Bowl-quarterback-turned-analyst Robert Griffin III took to X to immediately plead for the Buffalo Bills to trade for the disgruntled star.
"The Buffalo Bills should doing everything they can to trade for Myles Garrett, who just requested a trade from the Browns." Griffin posted.
"RG3" never played for the Bills, but he did have a five-game stint with the Browns, where he threw for 886 yards and two touchdowns in a 1-4 effort.
Myles had a career-high and NFL-leading 22 tackles-for-loss this season, paired with his 14 sacks. Garrett has recorded double-digit sacks and tackles-for-loss in the last seven NFL seasons.
The six-time Pro Bowler and four-time All Pro referenced the Browns' struggles to win for his reason of wanting out of the city that he's called home for the last eight years.
Garrett would likely command a hefty trade package, surely headlined by draft picks.
Garrett would be joining a defense that was 11th in the NFL in fewest-points allowed, and lost a tightly contested AFC Championship to the Kansas City Chiefs, 32-29.
No Bill this year had double-digit sacks, and only Gregory Rousseau had double-digit tackles-for-loss, with 16, to go along with a team-leading eight sacks.
Rousseau and Garrett would immediately become one of the premiere edge-rushing duos.
Whether Garrett is the addition needed to get the Bills over the hump that is the Kansas City Chiefs remains to be seen, but he would be a major addition for a Bills team that is seen as the biggest contender to the Chiefs in the AFC.
