Myles Garrett throws down epic dunk in All-Star Celebrity Game
It’s a well-known fact that Cleveland Browns defensive end Myles Garrett is one of the biggest freaks of nature in the National Football League. The defensive end once again put his incredible athleticism on display tonight in the All-Star Celebrity Game, part of NBA All-Star weekend’s festivities.
It’s just yet another vivid reminder that Garrett is one of the biggest freaks in all of sports. For a 6-foot-4, 272-pound man to be able to take off and throw one down like that, it’s pretty ridiculous. He tried to dunk it earlier in the game, but missed. The former Texas A&M star also had a pretty nasty block of Quavo’s shot, where he took off from the ground and swatted the ball like a volleyball out of bounds.
Garrett’s teammate, Cleveland running back Kareem Hunt, played against him in the Celebrity All-Star Game. Alex Toussaint, a former Peloton instructor with a military background, won the MVP award.
Myles Garrett posted a big-time performance at the 2017 NFL Scouting Combine
Garrett posted a 41-inch vertical leap at the 2017 NFL Scouting Combine, so the freakish displays of athleticism from him are nothing new. He also ran a 4.64 40-yard dash time. That doesn’t make his remarkable athletic skills any less impressive. His dominant performance at the Scouting Combine was a big reason the Cleveland Browns decided to pick him with the No. 1 overall selection in the 2017 NFL Draft.
He racked up 16 sacks this season for the Cleveland Browns and continues to be an unblockable force for them, year in, year out. During every year of his NFL career thus far except for one, he’s posted double digit sacks. Garrett has tallied 58.5 career sacks for his career, and he doesn’t appear to be slowing down anytime soon.
