Garrett Misses Browns Workouts, Coach Monken Unfazed

0:00On April 8th, Cleveland Brown's Superstar Miles Garrett, the back-to-back defensive player of the year and holder of the single-season sack record, missed the kickoff of the team's off-season workouts this week. New head coach Kevin Monkin, fresh-off coordinating Baltimore's offense, isn't losing any sleep over it. These early sessions are strictly voluntary, and Monkin made it clear players call their own shots on showing up. He knows every coach dreams of full attendance, but he gets that it's not mandatory. Monkin highlighted the real value in these meetups, building team bonds, sharing schemes, and fostering that locker-room vibe. Guys like Garrett, wire for competition since day one, thrive on it, but respect goes both ways. No red flags here, the staff trust Garrett's prep habits, and expects their defensive anchor ready for mandatory minicamp down the line. With Monkin steering this new chapter for Cleveland, early absences like this won't derail the momentum as they gear up for another run.
