Before officially requesting a trade out of Cleveland, Myles Garrett took his time to discuss the decision with not just his inner circle and family, but also with a fellow Cleveland sports star who had left the city twice in his career – LeBron James.
Garrett revealed that James was supportive and had reached out to him to understand his perspective and emotions. Drawing from his own experiences of starting his career with the Cavaliers in 2003 and later moving to the Miami Heat and then the Los Angeles Lakers, James offered guidance and a listening ear to Garrett.
Even though their career paths differ and Garrett is not originally from Cleveland like James, he valued the opportunity to speak with James about transitioning away from the team he had known for so long.
Garrett officially requested a trade from the Browns with the goal of competing for and winning a Super Bowl. Despite his decorated career with the Browns, including being a finalist for the Defensive Player of the Year award, Garrett felt that the team’s direction did not align with his aspirations for success.
While the Browns have asserted that they do not plan to trade Garrett, he remains focused on his desire to compete for championships and is open to where his career may take him next.
Garrett’s decision to seek a trade was driven by his passion for winning and his belief that the move was necessary for his future success in the league.
