Myles Garrett speeding history: Inside Browns star’s history of driving violations

1 hour ago 2

No one would question Myles Garrett's status as one of the NFL's elite players after winning two Defensive Player of the Year awards and posting a record 23 sacks in 2025. Off the field, the Cleveland Browns would like to see him make one major change.

Garrett has run into trouble for speeding time and time again, and he now has a laundry list of incidents on his record since entering the NFL.

The future Hall of Famer was even fortunate to avoid major injury when he got into a serious crash in 2022, but that moment evidently didn't serve as a wake-up call.

Here's a look at all of Garrett's speeding incidents since 2017.
