Cleveland Browns superstar Myles Garrett is on the brink of NFL history, as he is just half a sack away from tying the single-season record set by Hall of Famer Michael Strahan and Pittsburgh Steelers star TJ Watt.
Garrett, 29, said it would be “special” to break the record by sacking Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers.
“It would be special. He himself is legendary. And it’s a legendary record that I’m here chasing. So it would be cool to put a picture on the wall,” Garrett said at a news conference Friday.

Rodgers is quick to get the ball out and Garrett said it’s important to take away his easy reads.
“You have to take away those easy-access shots, make him look at his second read, and he has to keep running. There will be (opportunities) if we continue to make stops throughout the game, and he can’t continue to rely on those quick passes, when you have to score points,” Garrett said.
The Browns, who are 3-12, will play the Steelers at home on Sunday at 1 pm ET. The Steelers would clinch the AFC North and a playoff spot with a win over the Browns.

Garrett expects the Browns to play a decisive role, so if he sets the record on Sunday, he would do it with a win.
“Yeah, I just play. I want to get it, and you know, like I said, I want to win while I’m doing it. And I think we have guys that are committed and want to do that too,” Garrett said.
The seven-time Pro Bowler said there’s no pressure about the looming record.

“Pressure? No, there’s no pressure. Like I said, it’s going down. So I’m not stressed or worried about whether I’m going to get it. It’s just a matter of when,” Garrett said.
Garrett has established himself as one of the NFL’s top pass rushers since being selected with the first overall pick in the 2017 NFL Draft. The four-time All-Pro has a staggering 124.5 sacks in 132 career games.
