Cleveland Browns left guard Joel Bitonio has made up his mind about whether to retire, but he’s not ready to share his decision yet. Bitonio also revealed that Myles Garrett’s trade request has not influenced his decision.
Bitonio, who has been with the Browns since 2014, has been considering retirement due to his age and the physical demands of the NFL. However, he has not yet made an official announcement about his future plans.
Garrett’s trade request has been a major storyline for the Browns this offseason, but Bitonio says it has not affected his decision. Bitonio and Garrett have been teammates since 2017, and Bitonio has spoken highly of Garrett’s talent and work ethic.
The Browns will have to wait and see what Bitonio decides, but his retirement would be a significant loss for the team. Bitonio has been a consistent starter and leader on the Browns’ offensive line, and his experience and skill would be difficult to replace.
