Rams Activate OLB Myles Garrett, Among Other Moves

The team also elevated LS Jake McQuaide and CB Damarion Williams for their upcoming Week 9 matchup.

Los Angeles designated Garrett to return from injured reserve earlier this week. 

Garrett, 30, is a former first-round pick of the Browns back in 2017. He finished the third year of his four-year, $30.4 million fully guaranteed contract and was set to make a base salary of $4.61 million for the 2020 season when he agreed to a five-year extension worth $125 million with the Browns. 

Cleveland later signed him to a record four-year, $160 million contract extension, including $123.5 million in guaranteed money. He was entering the second year of his contract when the Browns traded him to the Rams in a massive blockbuster deal that included two first-round picks and DE Jared Verse.

Garrett signed a reworked deal with the Rams that averaged $40.8 million per year. 

In 2025, Garrett appeared in all 17 games for the Browns and recorded 60 tackles, 33 tackles for loss, 23 sacks, three forced fumbles, and one pass defended.
