Browns' Myles Garrett Sends Major Threat to Aaron Rodgers After Joining Steelers
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The AFC North is one of the most storied divisions in the NFL, and the teams within the division certainly know how to drive home their deep-seated rivalries. In fact, two of the teams that are constantly going after one another are the Cleveland Browns and Pittsburgh Steelers. More news: Colts' Anthony Richardson Given Unfortunate Timeline Return After Visiting Surgeon The Browns also have one of the most outspoken players in terms of rivalries and terrorizing opposing quarterbacks, which is star pass rusher Myles Garrett. Garrett spoke to the media about the fact that Aaron Rodgers is now a member of the Steelers, and he laid out a simple threat to the quarterback. Browns edge rusher Myles Garrett on Aaron Rodgers joining the AFC North: 'Good opportunity to put him in the graveyard.' — Jori Epstein (@JoriEpstein) June 10, 2025 When Garrett was asked about his thoughts on Rodgers joining the AFC North, he simply stated: "Good opportunity to put him in the graveyard." The simple yet effective threat is something that is expected of Garrett, who has continually secured 12+ sacks in the past five seasons. Considering the Browns will play the Steelers twice in 2025, it's a good chance that he will make sure to make good on his threat to Rodgers.

Garrett has been one of the best pass rushers in the league, leading to his being awarded a monster extension. He signed a four-year, $160 million contract in March, leading to him resetting the pass rusher market at $40 million per season. Though that number might sound a bit crazy, Garrett has continually been a defensive powerhouse for the Browns. His performance led to his asking for a trade from Cleveland, which rocked the NFL. While everyone believed that the Browns were going to be stuck in a tough situation deciding to trade Garrett, they instead brought him back on a monster new extension. Garrett is one of the anchors for the Browns, and there is a good chance he will rack up another double-digit sack count in 2025. Now, time will tell if that sack count will include Rodgers.

Ravens' AFC North rivals have trouble brewing with their star pass rushers
Ravens' AFC North rivals have trouble brewing with their star pass rushers Ravens' AFC North rivals have trouble brewing with their star pass rushers One of the final gifts that Ozzie Newsome gave the Baltimore Ravens organization was the selection of Lamar Jackson. Let that sink in for a second. After serving his organization admirably for more than two decades, there wasn't anything more that he needed to prove. Still, he added the most talented quarterback this franchise has seen and then handed the keys to new GM Eric DeCosta. Ozzie has since settled into the role of Executive Vice President, a position he has held since 2019. Lamar has won two MVP trophies. DeCosta's approval rating is soaring. Things aren't going so well across the rest of the AFC North's landscape. No one is complaining. It just seems interesting. Nothing the Cleveland Browns or Cincinnati Bengals do surprises us anymore, but what the heck is going on in the Steel City? More bad news comes for the Steelers as the AFC North crumbles around the mighty Ravens Never will you ever hear The Flock toss sympathy in the Pittsburgh Steelers' direction, but what is happening over there? A once-pristine organization is beginning to remind everyone of... well... the Bengals and Browns. Pittsburgh is no longer the elite organization it once was. The fans want a new coach, and even though Mike Tomlin has never endured a losing season, people are tired of hearing that. The Steelers haven't won a postseason game since January 15, 2017, and Aaron Rodgers' addition doesn't seem to be evoking confidence. They've lost six straight in the playoffs, and now, to make matters worse, their best defender isn't happy. T.J. Watt reportedly won't be attending mandatory minicamp. No progress has been made on a possible extension. Do you see it now? News like this is expected from the Bengals and Browns. Cincinnati has ticked off Trey Hendrickson, and Germaine Pratt, finally released on June 9, has been asking to be traded since February. The Bengals still have yet to sign two of their draftees, Shemar Stewart and Demetrius Knight Jr. The Browns... Sheesh... What can be said about Cleveland that we haven't already said 200 times? Discussing the mess they've created for themselves would require another story and 700 more words. Here's where we'll end this. Life has been kind to Ravens fans and the Baltimore media. Just take a look at the culture they have established, and while you're at it, thank your lucky stars when you lie down tonight that you aren't a fan of one of their rivals.

Dan Orlovsky thinks Shedeur Sanders is perfect fit for Kevin Stefanski's Browns offense
Don't be surprised if Shedeur Sanders ends up starting in Cleveland sooner than expected. ESPN's Dan Orlovsky said on 'Get Up' that Sanders is a 'perfect' fit for Kevin Stefanski's play-action-style offense which the Browns ran prior to Deshaun Watson's arrival in Cleveland. 'If this offense is going under Stefanski, at least rumors of what it was a couple of years ago, he's perfect for it,' Orlovsky said on 'Get Up' on Monday. 'He's perfect for the under center, play-action, control the line of scrimmage, see the defense — get from one, two, three, he's got to do it more quickly, but he's custom-made for that.' 3 Shedeur Sanders is perfect to run play action, according to ESPN's Dan Orlovsky. Getty Images Orlovsky sees Sanders as a more conventional, pro-style quarterback who lines up under center and uses the run game to his advantage as he methodically breaks down a defense, which is the opposite of quarterbacks who spread out defenses or run the option out of the backfield to utilize their legs. 'The way that he thinks, the way that he can see something on the board, take it to a walk-through, bring it to a practice that's [what you want to see],' Orlovsky said. The Browns ran play action on 25.5 percent of their pass plays (11th-most) in 2020 in Stefanski's first year as head coach, but that number that fell off a cliff to 18.3 percent in 2024 (10th-fewest) with Watson and Jameis Winston mostly behind center. Cleveland selected Sanders with the No. 144 pick despite having also drafted Dillon Gabriel No. 94 in the same draft, and the team also has veterans Joe Flacco and Kenny Pickett in the mix. 3 Dan Orlovsky explains what makes Shedeur Sanders perfect for Kevin Stefanski. ESPN Peter Schrager added that Sanders fell in the draft in part because he was only coached by his father, Deion Sanders, in high school and college, while also not having an agent or attending the NFL Combine. Only 13 teams carried three quarterbacks through their initial 53-man roster last season after training camp, so it will be a situation worth monitoring throughout the summer. Still, Orlovsky believes that the former Colorado star quarterback has a path to playing time despite being selected No. 144 overall by the Browns. Watson could potentially miss the whole season after undergoing multiple surgeries on his right Achilles tendon, leaving the team in search of a Week 1starter despite his $35.9 million cap hit. 3 Shedeur Sanders in a four-way quarterback battle. AP Pickett is set to make the most among the team's quarterbacks and is on a guaranteed deal this year, while Flacco has a cap hit of just $2.85 million and could a trade candidate if he doesn't win the job. Sanders and Gabriel likely will be batting in camp to stay off the practice squad.
