The Cleveland Browns have the best pass rusher in the game.
As such, it only makes sense that he’s recognized as such.
As shown by Madden 26 on X, Myles Garrett has the highest grade among edge rushers in the league, and he’s a part of the very exclusive 99 club.

Garrett became the highest-paid defensive player in NFL history this offseason.
He pushed the fans to the edge by requesting a trade at the end of the season, stating that he wanted to compete at the highest level and that his decision wasn’t motivated by money.
He even starred on a media tour during Super Bowl weekend, and reportedly tried to take his complaints to team owner Jimmy Haslam.
Ultimately, GM Andrew Berry made him an offer he couldn’t refuse, and, ironically, he now has a no-trade clause in his contract.
However, it hasn’t all been smooth for him ever since.
He drew some criticism for the way he handled that situation, especially after watching him skip voluntary OTAs.
For years, fans have demanded he step up as a leader in the same way he does on the field, and now that he’s making generational wealth, they want to see more from him.
Of course, that doesn’t make him any less of a superstar, and he’s still the most disruptive defensive force in the game by a margin.
Whether he’ll be the only pass rusher to have a 99 rating by the end of the NFL season remains to be seen.
