**Cleveland Browns Star Myles Garrett Cited for Speeding Incident**
Cleveland Browns defensive end Myles Garrett was cited for driving at 100 mph early Saturday morning after the team’s preseason game against the Carolina Panthers. Despite not playing in the game, Garrett was reportedly stopped for exceeding the speed limit in Strongsville, Ohio, just outside the Browns’ facility in Berea. The incident occurred shortly after the team returned to Cleveland from Charlotte.
Garrett received a $250 ticket, which he can pay without appearing in court. The Browns organization is aware of the situation and plans to address it as the team prepares for their upcoming preseason game against the Philadelphia Eagles.
This is not the first time Garrett has faced speeding charges; this marks the eighth citation for speeding in the Cleveland area since he was drafted first overall in 2017. In 2022, he was involved in a separate incident where he flipped his Porsche while attempting to avoid an animal on the road.
Speeding has been a recurring issue for the Browns this preseason, with rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders also receiving two speeding tickets in June. Sanders was cited for driving 101 mph in a 60 mph zone, and bodycam footage from the police officer who pulled him over indicated that he would issue a ticket to Sanders while letting another driver off with a warning. Sanders later acknowledged his mistakes regarding the speeding incidents during a charity event.
As Garrett heads into the 2025 season, he is under a new four-year contract extension worth over $40 million per season, with more than $123 million guaranteed. He continues to be recognized as one of the top defensive players in the league, having recorded 14 sacks and 47 total tackles in the previous season.
