Myles Garrett may have secured a massive $160 million contract extension with the Cleveland Browns , but that hasn’t stopped questions from swirling around his long-term commitment to the team. As trade rumors fade and the ink dries on the deal, new speculation has emerged—suggesting that the star defensive end might not be fully invested in staying in Cleveland for the long haul.
$160 Million contract locks Garrett in, yet raises doubts about long-term fit
Cleveland fans got what they wanted—on paper, at least. Myles Garrett isn’t going anywhere for the next four years, thanks to a record-setting $160 million extension. But instead of widespread celebration, the move has sparked uncertainty about his mindset and motivation.
Local radio host Pat McGuire stirred the pot, saying,"Honestly Myles took the new contract, but he wasn't happy about it. You can see it in his body language. He doesn't really want to be in Berea right now." That take, fair or not, has fueled an offseason debate that refuses to die.
Before the extension, Garrett’s name was swirling in trade rumors. For a moment, it seemed the Browns might actually part ways with their All-Pro edge rusher. Then came the massive deal—swift, shocking, and possibly strategic. To some, it signaled Garrett’s renewed commitment to Cleveland; to others, it looked like a calculated move by the front office to retain leverage and stability heading into a critical season.
From a personal perspective, it’s not hard to understand the complexity. Garrett has deep roots in Cleveland. He’s spent his entire NFL career there. But for a player of his caliber—still in his prime—championship aspirations matter. And right now, Cleveland doesn’t look like a team knocking on the Super Bowl door.
Garrett’s professionalism has never been in question, but his passion and presence will be under the microscope this season. A strong start could silence the doubters. But if the Browns stumble, or if Garrett looks disengaged, the whispers about his future will only grow louder.

The Cleveland Browns have made a historic investment in him, and now all eyes are on whether that commitment is truly mutual. As the 2025 NFL season unfolds, fans and analysts alike will be watching not just how Garrett plays, but how he carries the weight of expectation in Cleveland.
