Cleveland Browns fans know that edge rusher Myles Garrett is a defensive force of nature, but the display he put on after practice on Wednesday might even surprise those who have followed the team closely over the last few years.
Following the Browns’ workout at mandatory minicamp where the offense showed out for the second-straight day, Garrett stole the show for Cleveland’s defense in spectacular fashion with some dunks that were straight out of an NBA Street video game.

It is unclear if the first slam was an alley-oop from the coaching assistant off to the side or a pass to himself off the backboard, but either way, the hops necessary to complete the move were tremendously impressive.
He followed that jam up with two more dunks that could have won him a place in the NBA’s all-star weekend, proving that the finesse needed for the first was well within his skill set.
For the sake of the Browns’ defensive future, Garrett would be wise to lay off the extra stress on his knees, but these stuff shots were well worth the risk to show off what he can do on the hardwood… even if he was playing on grass.
