A surprising theory has emerged regarding Myles Garrett’s trade request from the Cleveland Browns. According to analyst Spencer German, Garrett may be attempting to force the Browns’ hand into finding a franchise quarterback.
German suggested that Garrett’s trade request might be a ploy to push the Browns into making a significant move to acquire a top quarterback. This theory is based on Garrett’s previous statements about wanting to play with a great quarterback.
While this theory is intriguing, it’s unclear whether it’s accurate. Garrett is a client of Klutch Sports, an agency known for aggressively pursuing their clients’ interests. It’s possible that Garrett genuinely wants out of Cleveland, despite having the opportunity to become the highest-paid defensive player in NFL history.
The Browns will need to address their quarterback situation regardless of Garrett’s actions. If Garrett’s trade request is legitimate, the Browns may have no choice but to comply and seek the best possible trade value for their star defensive end.
