Garrett’s contract was tweaked to ease funding, and Browns owner Jimmy Haslam hosted a farewell with Garrett before the trade became public.

Browns GM Andrew Berry said the trade of star edge Myles Garrett to the Rams happened because the opportunity was too great to pass, not Garrett’s absence or a trade request.
