Browns' Myles Garrett Won't Need Surgery on Dislocated Toe Injury from Pro Bowl

Scott PolacekFeb 7, 2023

Cleveland Browns pass-rusher Myles Garrett reportedly received good news regarding the dislocated toe he suffered during the Pro Bowl Games.

According to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, Garrett will not need surgery and faces a "short recovery time" after the toe "popped right back into place."

Garrett said Tuesday on Twitter, "We are all good over here."

When Garrett suffered the injury and limped off the field during the Pro Bowl Games, it stood out since the NFL changed the format from a game with live tackling to a series of competitions in part to make it safer for players.

Fears of a significant setback seem to have been quelled by the update, though.

That is welcome news for the Browns considering how dominant the Texas A&M product has been since they selected him with the No. 1 overall pick of the 2017 NFL draft. The four-time Pro Bowler and two-time All-Pro selection has reached double-digit sack totals in each of the last five seasons.

He has also been durable, missing just one game over the last two years.

Garrett appeared in 16 games this season and tallied 60 tackles, 16 sacks, four passes defended and two forced fumbles as a bright spot for the 7-10 Browns, who finished in last place in the AFC North.

The pass-rusher is under contract through 2026, so he figures to anchor Cleveland's defensive line for years to come. It doesn't seem like this toe injury will be an issue as he does that in 2023.
