Here’s the latest I can provide based on recent reporting:
- In March 2025, the Browns and Myles Garrett agreed to a four-year extension averaging about $40 million per year, with around $123 million guaranteed, keeping him in Cleveland through the 2030 season. This made him one of the highest-paid non-quarterbacks in the NFL at the time.
- Earlier in 2025, there were conflicting reports about Garrett’s contract talks, with some outlets suggesting he was not open to an extension during that period, and others indicating progress toward a deal. The situation included Garrett publicly signaling a desire to win and discussions between Garrett’s camp and Browns leadership.
- By January 2026, there were mentions in various outlets of ongoing contract discussions and potential modifications, reflecting the Browns’ ongoing assessment of Garrett’s value relative to the team's competitive window.
Notes:
- If you’re in Montréal, these updates reflect the U.S. league negotiations but are widely reported across national outlets.
- If you want a precise current status right now (today’s date, April 2026), I can pull the latest headlines and confirm whether Garrett’s deal has been restructured, extended further, or altered due to new negotiations.
Would you like me to fetch the very latest updates and provide a one-line status with the most current contract details? I can also summarize how the deal impacts Browns’ cap space and potential future moves.
