The Cleveland Browns‘ victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 2 of the NFL boosted the morale of a team that had been reeling from a season-opening loss. However, the foot injury to Myles Garrett remains a concern for both the player and the staff, and HC Kevin Stefanski made it clear regarding the situation.
After the game, in which DeShaun Watson led the Browns to a decisive 18-13 victory over the home team Jaguars, Garrett experienced discomfort from the foot injury that will keep him sidelined during practice.
In his usual Monday press conference, it was none other than head coach Kevin Stefanski who addressed the situation of one of his star players: “I mean, we can obviously treat — all these guys, we can treat the injury, you can rest.
“And then there’s a lot of guys that are playing through a ton of things and Myles is no different. He’s done that in his career when I’ve been with him. He plays through things, and he’ll just continue to get better and treat the injury.”

After the game in which the Browns decisively defeated the Jacksonville Jaguars, Myles Garrett addressed his health status and the conditions in which he finished the game. On several occasions, he was seen kneeling and also spending time on the sidelines without seeing any playing time.
“Didn’t feel great,” said Garrett said of his foot after the game. “Been battling it and there were some ups, some downs with it. Sometimes it felt a little bit better, sometimes it felt a bit worse. But, it’s part of the game.”
