Burrow Says He Won’t Change Approach as Garrett Sits Half-Sack From NFL Record

The Bengals describe their Week 18 approach as routine preparation for Myles Garrett.

Overview

  • Myles Garrett enters the finale with 22.0 sacks, a half-sack shy of the 22.5 single-season record held by Michael Strahan and T. J. Watt.
  • Joe Burrow said he will not overcompensate either way for the record pursuit, noting some situations may still warrant taking a sack.
  • Zac Taylor rejected the idea that Pittsburgh prioritized Garrett’s record over winning and said limiting Garrett is standard to any Browns game plan.
  • Taylor voiced confidence in Cincinnati’s offensive line to handle the task of containing Garrett.
  • Cleveland visits Paycor Stadium on Sunday at 1 p.m., and while the Bengals are 6–10 and out of the playoffs, Garrett’s strong history versus Cincinnati includes 15 career sacks and two in Week 1.
