Myles Garrett just etched his name into NFL history, and the moment immediately went VIRAL.
With a little under five minutes remaining in the fourth quarter against the Cincinnati Bengals, the Cleveland Browns superstar finally got home on Joe Burrow, recording sack No. 23.5 on the season and officially breaking the NFL’s single-season sack record. The clip of the play spread across social media within seconds, as fans and teammates erupted in celebration.
Garrett now stands alone at the top of the record books. The previous mark of 22.5 sacks was shared by Michael Strahan (2001) and T.J. Watt (2021). Strahan’s record came during a 16-game season, while Watt matched it in 15 games during the modern 17-game format — both recognized as the official high-water mark since sacks became an official stat in 1982.
This season, Garrett has been nothing short of dominant — a mix of freakish athleticism, relentless motor, and game-wrecking consistency. The record-breaking sack felt inevitable, but that didn’t make the moment any less electric.
