Myles Garrett Breaks Silence: "I’m Drained" as Frustration Builds Amid Browns' Ongoing Struggles, Demanding Change Now
In a candid and emotional statement, Cleveland Browns defensive end Myles Garrett made it clear that his patience is running thin as the team continues to struggle. Garrett, one of the most dominant defensive players in the NFL, expressed his frustration with the team’s performance, openly admitting that he is "drained" after enduring yet another tough season.
“I’ve put everything I have into this, and honestly, I’m drained,” Garrett said after the Browns' latest loss. “We work hard, we prepare, but it feels like we’re just not getting the results we need. I’m frustrated, and I think a lot of people in this locker room are too. At some point, we have to ask ourselves: when is it going to change?”
Garrett’s statement comes amid growing tension within the Browns organization as the team struggles to find consistency. Despite Garrett’s individual excellence — he has been a consistent force on the field — the team’s overall performance has faltered, leaving both fans and players frustrated. Garrett, known for his leadership and unwavering commitment, has been one of the few bright spots for the Browns, but even he is beginning to feel the weight of the team’s underachievement.
The defensive star’s frustration is understandable. Garrett’s relentless drive and high-level play have often been overshadowed by the team’s inconsistent offense and inability to close out games. His powerful words signal a turning point for the Browns, as players and coaches must confront whether the current system can lead to success or if a change is needed.
“I’m doing everything I can out there. But I’m only one player,” Garrett continued. “At the end of the day, it takes all of us. And right now, we’re not there.”
Garrett’s outburst has sparked widespread discussion, with many questioning the Browns' future and their ability to turn things around. Head coach Kevin Stefanski responded to Garrett’s comments, acknowledging the frustration but emphasizing that it’s up to the entire team to work together and find solutions.
“We all understand the frustration,” Stefanski said. “Myles is a leader, and he wants to win as badly as anyone. We need to continue to work hard and stay focused. It’s on all of us to improve.”
Garrett’s declaration is a call to action for both the team and the organization. It’s clear that he remains committed to the Browns' success, but his patience is running out. With the season still in flux, the pressure is mounting for the team to find a way to capitalize on Garrett’s extraordinary talent and begin delivering results.
For the Browns, the clock is ticking. How they respond to Garrett’s frustration may very well determine the direction of the rest of their season.
“There Will Be Suspensions” Bills-Panthers Post-Game Brawl Captured On Video, Disturbing Details Emerge
What was supposed to be a routine postgame handshake turned chaotic Sunday afternoon as players from the Buffalo Bills and Carolina Panthers got into a heated altercation following Buffalo’s dominant
An ugly post-game brawl between the Bills and Panthers has been captured on video, which reveals disturbing details
According to multiple reports and video footage circulating on social media, the confrontation began when Bills left tackle Dion Dawkins and Panthers defensive lineman A’Shawn Robinson exchanged words during the postgame handshake line.
Witnesses say Dawkins appeared to glance up at the scoreboard before extending his hand — an action that Robinson took exception to. Within seconds, the two were chest-to-chest, prompting teammates and staff to rush in and separate the pair as tempers flared.
Security and officials quickly stepped in to de-escalate the situation. No punches were reported to have landed, and the scene broke up within moments, but not before cameras captured the heated exchange.
“I was just trying to shake hands,” Dawkins told reporters afterward. “The scoreboard said what it said. I respect every opponent, but sometimes emotions run high.” Robinson declined to speak to the media following the game.
The NFL is expected to review the incident, as postgame scuffles typically draw attention from the league’s disciplinary office. No fines or suspensions have been announced as of Sunday evening.
The incident capped off a frustrating day for the Panthers, who entered the matchup riding a three-game winning streak but struggled against Buffalo’s relentless defense. The Bills, meanwhile, improved to 6–2 and remain one of the AFC’s hottest teams heading into Week 9.
What’s Next
-
The NFL will likely assess the postgame footage to determine if disciplinary measures are necessary.
-
Both teams return to practice Monday morning, with Buffalo preparing for a key divisional matchup next week.
-
The Panthers will look to regroup after their toughest loss of the season.
