Garrett brings defensive star power to the flag-football lineup, underscoring the event’s breadth across positions. His involvement adds credibility and appeal to a format that seeks to broaden NFL brand reach and fan engagement.

Garrett, the Browns’ premier pass rusher, pushed back on the team’s direction and stressed defense and 60-minute effort after a costly loss, while continuing to anchor Cleveland’s sack production.

Garrett’s elite pass rush and disruptive presence stand out; the defense’s brilliance is somewhat wasted if the offense can’t sustain drives.

Garrett inked a four-year, $160M extension with the Browns, anchoring Cleveland’s defense as the team grapples with an 0-2 start and a high-pressure improving schedule.

Garrett anchors Cleveland’s pass rush, a key asset if the Browns want to disrupt Baltimore’s rhythm. His ability to win one-on-one alignments against Baltimore’s front and apply pressure on Jackson could swing field position and create turnover opportunities, making him a pivotal fantasy DL/DE play in a high-stakes Week 2 clash.
