In a February statement, Garrett demanded a trade because the team couldn't compete for a Super Bowl, hoping to join a contender. Has the Browns' front office shown interest in trading him? No, GM Andrew Berry made it clear that Garrett isn't for sale, and they expect him to retire as a Brown.

"If we wanted to trade Myles, we wouldn't have needed to make a contract adjustment,โ€ Berry said (h/t ESPN ). โ€œMyles is a career Brown. He is one of the faces of our organization.

" Reportedly, the contract adjustment fueled trade rumors. The Browns modified the language in Garrett's deal, pushing the date to exercise option bonuses seven days before the regular season. Garrett skipped the Cleveland Browns' voluntary offseason program, which started Tuesday at their training facility in Berea, Ohio.
