Myles Garrett, who recently signed a record-setting extension just weeks after publicly asking for a trade, says he and the Browns are in a "better place" and ready to "turn Cleveland into a winner."

Cleveland edge rusher Myles Garrett believes a trade request and voicing his frustrations during Super Bowl week about the Browns’ 3-14 campaign was the catalyst for more conversations with general manager Andrew Berry about the franchise’s future.

Garrett said his trade request and insistence that he was ready to play for a contender were "necessary" to further the conversation.
