Bombshell: The #Browns are finalizing a trade of Defensive Player of the Year Myles Garrett to the #Rams in a shocker, sources tell me, @TomPelissero & @AdamSchefter.
Cleveland would send Garrett to LA in exchange for star edge Jared Verse, a first-rounder, and more.

The Chargers safety room had THREE players grade in the top-30 in coverage in 2025.
Derwin James-5th (83.7) 16 games
RJ Mickens-17th (73.4) 12 games
Tony Jefferson-26th (70.3) 13 games
The unit ranked first in passer rating allowed (56.3)
Yielded the second -fewest first downs in coverage (25)
And finished second in the league in interceptions (10).
Looking to build off that success in 2026, add in Elijah Molden who will be looking to return to 2024 form, Kendall Williamson, a valuable special teams contributor and rookie Genesis Smith, a true center-fielding free safety.
Excited to see what safeties coach Adam Fuller has in store going into his second season, for one of the better position groups on this team that isn’t talked about enough.
Chargers EDGE Khalil Mack on making the decision to return to the team for his 13th season.
"Coming back here, I wanted to be in a position to help the team win a championship. Through my actions I want to show how much it means to me"
Chargers EDGE Khalil Mack on the possibility of Tuli getting a contract extension:
"We talk about that often, hopefully that gets done soon, I'm excited for him"
Chargers EDGE Khalil Mack on Akheem Mesidor:
"Him coming on the field and wanting to get to work on the first day, just seeing how eager he is and the questions he asks...he's polished, he's got that attitude like he's ready to come on the field and ready to play"
