BEREA, Ohio — On Monday afternoon, Browns defensive end Myles Garrett was heading home after a day at practice in Berea. The usual commute didn't end the way it usually does for Garrett, however, as he found himself in a rollover crash before making it home.
“That’s what I believe made me move in the first place. I remember moving out of the way of an animal coming from the right and then I remember an approaching car coming the opposite way, which was kind of…quick flashes after that," Garrett recalled."Fortunately, I had both my hands on the wheel, but unfortunately I lost control, but everything else that I had control of I was doing the right way and I was able to save our lives and at least keep us able to walk away from that crash.
The defensive end was out of the hospital Monday night and has since been recovering from his injuries. He said that each morning he feels better, but when it comes to playing Sunday—that's not up to him. “I think this will be definitely a wake-up call for me, just try to be smart overall with driving. Don’t take for granted. Be grateful that I’m still able to be here and just take my time," Garrett said."I don’t think it takes something as drastic as this to tell me that I need to slow down. It’s about listening to my loved ones, hearing them out and understanding that it is serious every time you get into the car.
