Getty Myles Garrett #85 of the Cleveland Browns.
The Cleveland Browns could be without their top defensive end Myles Garrett in Week 4 when they take on the Atlanta Falcons at Mercedes Benz Stadium.
Garrett is dealing with a sprained left shoulder, strained right biceps, lacerated right wrist and ruptured blood vessel in his left eye following a single-car accident in his Porsche 911 Turbo on Monday.
The Browns star addressed the media on Friday, September 30 for the first time since his accident.
“I think emotionally I’m pretty grounded with everything, I’ve put it behind me,” Garrett said. “Physically I’m still dealing with some of the injuries that came along with it but it’s really just a blur, it all happened pretty fast and sometimes, the last couple nights I’ve sat and thought about some of the different situations, scenarios, how it played out, but knowing that I can’t change the past, just got to keep moving forward and glad everyone’s all right.”
Fellow defensive end Jadeveon Clowney is also questionable for Sunday as he is still dealing with a sprained ankle injury.
Cordarrelle Patterson Set to Play vs. Cleveland
As for Atlanta, their star running back, Cordarrelle Patterson, is the lone player listed as questionable for Sunday with a knee injury.
While Patterson’s status is up in the air, he remains certain that he will play on Sunday.
“I feel like I’m going to play every Sunday, no matter what the situation is,” Patterson told ESPN’s Michael Rothstein following Friday’s practice. “I plan on playing Sunday and we all know that’s the plan.”
Head coach Arthur Smith added that the team’s trainer will assess Patterson again on Saturday.
