In a season that included exceptional performances from some of the NFL’s most fearsome defensive players, Myles Garrett of the Cleveland Browns won the Defensive Player of the Year Award. Garrett won the prized honor by a small margin against Pittsburgh Steelers’ T.J. Watt, who received 19 first-place votes to Garrett’s 23. Garrett took advantage of the award and paid tribute to his hometown, mimicking LeBron James’ memorable comments after the Cavaliers won the NBA Championship. “To the city of Cleveland, this one’s for you!“ Garrett yelled, thanking his supporters and the community who backed him throughout his career.

Looking at this even the Akron Hammer took to his Instagram to give a shoutout to Garret for his achievement. He put up a story with Garrett holding the Defensive Player of the Year award and captioned the photo writing, “Congratulations brother.”

For Garrett, winning the Defensive Player of the Year Award is far more than just a personal accomplishment. It is an additional step toward creating a Hall of Fame-worthy career as his dedication to the Browns and the people of Cleveland goes beyond the football field. Because just like James, he recognizes the importance of bringing a championship to his city and has embraced it with open arms.

So, as Garrett dreams of lifting the Lombardi Trophy, his solid tenacity and leadership act as a sign of hope for Browns fans everywhere. However, just like James is a fan of the NFL, Garrett is a fan of basketball and he proved it by entering the ownership side of the sport.

Myles Garrett buys a minority stake in Cleveland Cavaliers

Myles Garrett, the Cleveland Browns’ defensive end, has entered the NBA by agreeing to buy a minority share in the Cleveland Cavaliers. His declaration marks his official entry into the Cavaliers’ ownership ranks, and he will also act as a brand ambassador for the franchise. While the exact percentage of Garrett’s ownership position is unknown, the Cavaliers emphasized their enthusiasm in welcoming the NFL star as a partner and investor.

Garrett’s love of basketball is widely known, as he has attended several Cavaliers games and even competed in the NBA’s All-Star Celebrity Game. Due to that, he acknowledged his joy in getting the chance to become a Cavaliers owner and stated it “is truly a dream come true.”
