As the NFL offseason heats up, rumors have been swirling around Cleveland Browns superstar Myles Garrett and a potential move to the Pittsburgh Steelers. While most believed this was just another wild offseason speculation, Garrett finally addressed the situation ahead of his latest interview—and his words have sent shockwaves through the football world.
When asked directly about the possibility of wearing black and gold instead of the Browns’ signature orange, Garrett didn’t shut down the idea completely. Instead, he left fans and analysts alike scratching their heads with a cryptic response:
“In this league, you never say never. I’ve got a lot of respect for the Steelers organization. But right now, my focus is on being the best version of myself—wherever that may be.”
That last phrase—“wherever that may be”—has only fueled more speculation that something big could be in the works.
The Steelers are known for their storied history of dominant pass rushers, with T.J. Watt leading the current generation. But imagine pairing Watt with Garrett—two of the most feared edge rushers in the NFL on the same defensive front.
While a move like this seems unlikely given the AFC North rivalry, the Steelers have shown they’re not afraid to go after elite talent, even from rival teams. If Pittsburgh is serious about another championship run, adding Garrett could be the ultimate power move.
Unsurprisingly, Cleveland Browns fans are furious at even the suggestion that Garrett could consider leaving, let alone joining their division rivals. Some have taken to social media to call him out, demanding loyalty to the franchise that drafted him.
One fan wrote:
“Myles, don’t even joke about this. You’re a Browns legend. Don’t ruin it by even considering Pittsburgh!”
Garrett’s contract situation and the Browns’ future direction will likely determine whether there’s any real chance of a move. For now, he remains a Cleveland Brown, but his words have left the door open—just enough for Steelers fans to start dreaming.
Will Garrett and Watt team up to terrorize quarterbacks together? Or was this just an offseason tease? Only time will tell—but this story is far from over.
