Myles Garrett enters the second half of the 2023 NFL season as a clear Defensive Player of the Year candidate, leading one of the best units in the NFL and spearheading the Cleveland Browns to a 5-3 record ahead of Sunday’s showdown with the Baltimore Ravens.<\/p>\n

Garrett, however, sees more to come.<\/p>\n

“I think I’m nearing my prime, the peak of my powers,” Garrett told The Pat McAfee Show<\/em> on Tuesday. “I think it’s just matching that experience and that wisdom as well as my athletic ability. Both of those being combined, I think that’s really taken my game to another level.”<\/p>\n

Garrett has shined in defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz’s scheme. Through eight games, Garrett’s generated 9.5 sacks and 18 QB hits, both second-most in the NFL. He leads the league with four strip-sacks. Garrett’s 19.4 pressure percentage ranks sixth in the NFL, and he’s getting home better than anyone else, netting a league-high 4.8 sack percentage, per Next Gen Stats.<\/p>\n
