Myles Garrett Vows to Break Sack Record Before Micah Parsons

2026-07-19 · Myles Garrett · Player Focus

Myles Garrett has issued a bold challenge, declaring he will break his own NFL sack record before Micah Parsons does. The Cleveland Browns star, already one of the league’s most feared pass rushers, made the statement in a recent interview, setting the stage for a high-stakes competition between two of the game’s brightest defensive talents.

What Did Myles Garrett Say?

Garrett, who holds the Browns’ single-season sack record with 19.5 in 2019, didn’t mince words. He told reporters he’s determined to reclaim the top spot before Parsons, the Dallas Cowboys’ rising star, can catch up. The rivalry adds another layer of intrigue to the upcoming season, as both players aim to dominate in the trenches.

Why This Matters for Myles Garrett

At 28, Garrett is in his prime and remains a cornerstone of Cleveland’s defense. His confidence reflects his relentless work ethic and belief in his ability to outperform even the league’s best. Breaking his own record would further cement his legacy as one of the NFL’s greatest defensive ends.

The Race Against Micah Parsons

Parsons, just 25, is already a two-time Pro Bowler and a perennial sack leader. His explosive speed and versatility make him a nightmare for offensive lines. If Garrett wants to stay ahead, he’ll need to maintain his elite form while Parsons continues to ascend.

What Comes Next?

The 2026 season will be a proving ground for both players. Garrett’s Browns face a tough schedule, but his individual performance will be under the microscope. If he can stay healthy and continue his dominant play, he’ll have a real shot at rewriting the record books-before Parsons gets the chance.
