Shawne Merriman says Myles Garrett can be ‘one of the best to do it’

Cleveland Browns defensive end Myles Garrett proved last season how dominant he can be when rushing the passer. And he did so even when he was one of the most double-teamed players in the league.

Garrett was dealing with injuries his rookie season, which limited his impact. In 11 games, Garrett made 31 total tackles, nine tackles for loss, seven sacks, one forced fumble, and 18 quarterback hits.

But after missing time with those injuries, Garrett returned with a vengeance and played the entire 2019 campaign. In 16 games last season, Garrett made 44 total tackles, 12 tackles for loss, 13.
