Ohio State Highway Patrol issues citation to Myles Garrett, says Cleveland Browns star drove at 'unsafe speed' before crash

BEREA, Ohio -- Cleveland Browns defensive end Myles Garrett was issued a citation for "failure to control his motor vehicle" in the wake of Monday's single car-crash, the Ohio State Highway Patrol said in a release to ESPN.

Garrett also was traveling at an "unsafe speed for the type of roadway" he was on, which contributed to the accident, the highway patrol said. According to the crash report released to ESPN, Garrett was driving 65 mph on a road with a 45-mph speed limit.

The star pass rusher suffered a shoulder sprain and a biceps strain as well as cuts and bruises after his vehicle went off the side of the road and flipped over before coming to a rest.
