Myles Garrett’s Response to Commanders Trade Rumors is Going Viral

The Washington Commanders, fresh off a surprising 12-5 season and NFC Championship appearance, are well-positioned to build around their star rookie QB, Jayden Daniels. With ample salary cap space, they are expected to explore all options to contend for a Super Bowl during Daniels’ rookie contract.

While the Commanders are rumored to be interested in offensive weapons like Tee Higgins and Cooper Kupp, they also need to upgrade their defense, which finished 13th in the league despite improving throughout the season. They currently lack a dominant edge rusher, even with Dante Fowler Jr.’s solid performance.

Myles Garrett’s recent trade request from the Cleveland Browns has put the Commanders in the spotlight. Despite Cleveland’s reluctance to trade him, Garrett could potentially force a move by sitting out. Washington has been repeatedly mentioned as a top destination for Garrett due to their recent success, a promising young quarterback, a new owner, and a respected coaching staff.

Garrett’s desire to join a contender aligns perfectly with the Commanders’ current status. In a recent interview with Sports Illustrated, Garrett was directly asked about the possibility of being traded to Washington. He smiled and laughed before acknowledging their need for a pass rusher, a role he believes he could fill. This clearly indicates Garrett’s interest in playing for the Commanders, making it a situation worth watching to see if the Commanders pursue the star defensive end.
