The N.F.L. has reinstated Myles Garrett, the Cleveland Browns defensive end, the team announced in a statement on Wednesday. He had been suspended indefinitely for pulling off the helmet of Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Mason Rudolph and hitting him in the head with it during a game in November.
Andrew Berry, the Browns’ general manager, said in a statement, “We welcome Myles back to our organization with open arms.” Garrett met with N.F.L. representatives including the commissioner, Roger Goodell, on Monday in New York. Garrett is now eligible to participate in spring workouts and play when the season begins.
