Myles Garrett Sets NFL Single-Season Sack Record With 23 in 2025 Finale

The milestone becomes the league's official standard since 1982, with earlier research crediting Al 'Bubba' Baker with an unofficial 23 in 1978.

Overview

  • He recorded his 23rd sack by bringing down Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow with 5:14 remaining in Week 18.
  • He surpassed the previous official mark of 22.5 held by Michael Strahan (2001) and T. J. Watt (2021).
  • Teammates lifted and celebrated him after the play, and head coach Kevin Stefanski said the team prioritized giving him chances to reach the mark.
  • He also set a separate NFL benchmark by posting at least 12 sacks in six consecutive seasons.
  • His career total stands at 125.5 sacks, and he entered the season on a four-year, $160 million Browns deal.
