Hold up a minute, did I hear someone saying who’s one of the best in the D-line? It’d be a sin to not add Myles Garrett to the list. Yeah, yeah, I heard you. So what if the Browns were not able to make it to the playoffs? Just because of that, are we going to forget how amazing he’s been? The Sporting News officially named him the 2024 Defensive Player of the Year for a reason. He won the same award twice in a row, so you can’t just say it was just a one-time wonder thing. Myles Garrett is the only Browns player to achieve this since the legendary Jim Brown in the ’50s.

Myles got it in his name, so it’s inevitable that his career will go miles. You know what else he did in the 2024 season? He pocketed 14 sacks, which made him the only player in NFL history to hit that in four straight seasons. And wait a minute, how can we forget his career-high 102.5 sacks? That’s literally the most in Browns’ history. His coach, Kevin Stefanski, once said, “It should be impossible.” But for Myles Garrett? Impossible doesn’t exist. Now, one obvious question arises—what kind of money does a great player like that take home?

What is Myles Garrett’s net worth?

“Money Trees is the perfect place for shade.” Kendrick couldn’t have put it better, because I’m sure Myles Garrett would agree with it. Let’s bring this time machine back to 2020 when he signed a massive five-year extension with the Browns. We can get into the contract later. But yes, I can tell you that it was enough to place him at the 26th rank on Forbes’ highest-paid athletes list. And his net worth as of right now is somewhere around $12 million.

But are we really going to judge his real worth by the money in his bank account? As much as he’s a great defensive player on the field, he’s just as impactful when it comes to protecting the community. He participated in Chris Long’s Waterboys organization, with a mission to provide clean drinking water to people in need. He also supports other organizations working toward and contributing to various social causes, like the Alzheimer’s Association, the Dr. Maya Angelou Foundation, and the Boys & Girls Club of Cleveland.

What is Myles Garrett’s salary?

What can be the salary of a player who’s been nominated six times for the Pro Bowl? Well, it’s quite a lot—enough for a common man to retire. In 2024, his base salary was $1.21 million. And the most wow factor? His total cap hit was over $20 million. That’s basically 8% of the Browns’ salary cap. The Browns clearly know his value to the team. Currently, he’s making about $25 million bucks per year.

When you have that much cash in your account, you obviously need a whip that speaks for itself. Myles Garett is known for his impressive car collection, like the Porsche 911 Turbo S. He deserves to flaunt a little after all that hard work. Plus, his brand deals with Reebok, Pepsi, Aquafina, and Gatorade must be making him so many Benjamins that we can’t even count.

How long is Myles’ contract?

Myles Garrett is a great player, we are well aware of that, so are the Browns, and other teams as well. He could get a really sweet deal from any team out there, but he’s loyal to the Browns. And the Browns respect that and make sure that he’s happy with the money they are paying him. I mean, getting a massive five-year, $125 million contract, with a whopping $100 million guaranteed, is a great deal to me.

GM Andrew Berry said, “I think you can assume that we do anticipate, at some point, doing a third contract with Myles. We want him to retire here.” They know his value, and losing him to another team would be a huge loss to the Browns. “I’m going to stay loyal to a team that showed loyalty to me and faith in me by drafting me,” Myles said.
