Browns sign Myles Garrett to 5-year, $125 million extension [View all]

The deal includes $100 million guaranteed, according to NFL Network

Myles Garrett's on-field misbehavior last season damaged his public image. It didn't change how the Cleveland Browns feel about him.

The team signed Garrett to a five-year, $125 million contract extension on Wednesday, making the talented edge rusher the NFL's highest-paid defensive player. The deal includes $100 million guaranteed, according to NFL Network.

The timing of Garrett's extension is surprising since the last time he played in a game it ended with him ripping off Pittsburgh quarterback Mason Rudolph's helmet and striking him in the head with it. The shocking attack led to a six-game suspension for Garrett and questions about his character.

I'm going to guess the contract has all kind of behavioral clauses providing an out for Cleveland ... otherwise it's a huge roll of the dice.
