For the eighth time since he was selected as the No. 1 overall pick in the 2017 draft, Myles Garrett was cited for speeding earlier this month. <\/p>\n

Garrett was driving 100 miles per hour in a 60 mph zone. Among his other incidents, Garrett also flipped a Porsche 911 three years ago while driving at excessive speed and swerving to avoid hitting an animal. <\/p>\n

After head coach Kevin Stefanski called Garrett\u2019s latest citation \u201cextremely disappointing<\/a>,\u201d Garrett had an opportunity to address the situation in a Wednesday press conference. <\/p>\n

He declined to do so. <\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019d honestly rather talk about football and this team<\/a> than anything I\u2019m doing off the field \u2014 other than the back to school event that I did the other day,\u201d Garrett said. <\/p>\n

When a reporter followed up by saying people want to know about it, Garrett replied, \u201cPeople want to know a lot of things.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cBut I try to keep my personal life personal,\u201d Garrett said. \u201cI\u2019d rather focus on this team when I can.\u201d<\/p>\n

Garrett was later asked about his leadership, given this latest citation, and again refused to answer. <\/p>\n

\u201cAgain, you\u2019re asking the same question, and I\u2019ve answered it two different times,\u201d Garrett said. \u201cSo, I\u2019m going to need you to ask a different question so I can focus on this team and not this headline you\u2019re trying to get out of this question that you\u2019re asking.\u201d<\/p>\n

Garrett, 29, signed a four-year, $160 million extension with the Browns this offseason after previously requesting a trade. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"For the eighth time since he was selected as the No. 1 overall pick in the 2017 draft,…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":84205,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[436],"tags":[49,48,514,82],"class_list":["post-84204","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nfl","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-nfl","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/84204","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=84204"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/84204\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/84205"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=84204"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=84204"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=84204"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
