We have a new single-season sacks king and it is none other than Cleveland Browns<\/a> superstar edge rusher Myles Garrett.<\/p>\n

Entering Week 18, Garrett was just one half of a sack shy<\/a> of tying the record, which was held by Michael Strahan and T.J. Watt, both of whom tallied 22.5.<\/p>\n

Strahan initially broke the record with the New York Giants<\/a> in 2001, and Watt tied that record with the Pittsburgh Steelers<\/a> in 2021.<\/p>\n

Garrett secured a full sack to surpass both Watt and Strahan against the Cincinnati Bengals<\/a> when he took down quarterback Joe Burrow in the fourth quarter.<\/p>\n

Here’s video of the record-breaking sack, which was Garrett’s 23rd of the season:<\/p>\n

With that sack, Garrett also moved into a tie for 20th on the all-time sacks leaders list<\/a>, matching the 125.5 Indianapolis Colts<\/a> great Dwight Freeney tallied during his career.<\/p>\n

Garrett still has a long way to go to reach Buffalo Bills<\/a> legend Bruce Smith’s 200 career sacks, which is tops in NFL history.<\/p>\n

But if he can continue playing at or close to an elite level for another handful of years, it’s not crazy to think he can eventually get there.<\/p>\n
