Daily Dawg Tags: Hoping for the best with Myles Garrett
Cleveland Browns fans may have all panicked a bit when it was announced Myles Garrett may be dealing with a serious ankle injury.
Being a Cleveland Browns fan is not a low-stress activity.
The stress levels should have been manageable up to this point, with the regular season being the time for fans to realize this team may be improving, but there is still a whole other level to reach in order to become a contender.
Reaching that level becomes tough without talent, and the news of Myles Garrett leaving Wednesday’s practice could deal a major blow to the team’s success early on in 2017.
Garrett is just one player, but it is clear he is among the best players on this defense. The team has not yet declared him to be out for Sunday’s game, but seeing another top pick dealing with injury problems is just the latest installment in the post-1999 nightmares of Browns fans.
We won’t go into full panic mode until an announcement is made, an even then we won’t declare mass panic if he misses a few games. But if this injury lingers for some time, you may hear some muffled cries on Sundays in Northeast Ohio.
We take a look at the Garrett news and more in today’s edition of the Daily Dawg Tags. In good news, there is football on tonight!
