Garrett said he believes the trade request and voicing his frustration on radio row during Super Bowl week about the Browns' 3-14 campaign was the catalyst that prompted more conversations with general manager Andrew Berry about the franchise's future. Berry watched Friday's news conference from the back of the media room.

The Cleveland Browns were able to start off their offseason with a huge move to keep superstar pass rusher Myles Garrett. After making a very public trade request, Garrett changed his mind and returned to the Browns. He received a massive four-year, $160 million extension to help convince him to do so.
