In a move that has sent shockwaves through the NFL and sparked celebrations across the Dawg Pound, Cleveland Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski announced today that superstar defensive end Myles Garrett will take on a brand new role that could change the trajectory of the franchise forever.
“Starting this season, Myles Garrett will not only anchor our defenseโheโll be wearing the captainโs โCโ permanently and stepping into a hybrid leadership role on and off the field,” Stefanski said during a surprise press conference early Wednesday morning. โHeโs not just our most dominant player. Heโs our tone-setter, our heartbeat. Itโs time we lean into that even more.โ
Fans immediately flooded social media, calling the news โbetter than a Super Bowl winโ and dubbing it โGarrett Era 2.0.โ
But that wasnโt all.
Stefanski also teased the possibility of using Garrett in โunconventional packages,โ sparking speculation that the defensive phenom could occasionally line up on offense or even act as a situational team motivator during game planning.
โDonโt be surprised if you see No. 95 catching a touchdown pass this year,โ Stefanski added with a grin. โHeโs been working on his hands.โ
The Browns Locker Room Reacts
Inside the locker room, players were reportedly “buzzing with energy” after the announcement. Quarterback Deshaun Watson said, โThereโs no one more deserving. Myles already leads by exampleโthis just makes it official.โ
Veteran linebacker Anthony Walker Jr. called the news โthe beginning of something special.โ
A New Chapter for Cleveland
As the Browns aim to make a deep playoff push this season, Stefanskiโs bold move signals that this is not the same old Cleveland. With Myles Garrett leading the charge like never before, the teamโs identity is clear: fast, fearless, and hungry.
And the fans? Theyโre all in.
โGive us the rings now,โ one excited fan posted on X (formerly Twitter). โMyles Garrett is HIM, and Stefanski just became Coach of the Year.โ
