Haslam: Garrett Trade Was Berry's Decision

Browns owner Jimmy Haslam confirmed that the decision to trade Myles Garrett to the Rams was made by general manager Andrew Berry.

Browns owner Jimmy Haslam addressed the Garrett trade in a Friday press conference, stating: "That was Andrew's decision. I don't know what Andrew shared with you yesterday or in the past, that's something that — the conversations we've had for about a while before it was announced, and the Rams were a good partner there and kept it quiet." ipltable.lol

Haslam explained why he accepted Berry's recommendation: "Well, one, I think we got a really good player back, and I think you saw him today — a really good player who's 25 years old and still on his rookie contract, so that's the biggest reason. And then we picked up a one, a two and a three, and I think we all realize the three years we didn't have number one picks due to the Deshaun [Watson] trade."
