Cleveland Browns superstar edge rusher Myles Garrett and San Francisco 49ers All-Pro tight end George Kittle had a priceless one-on-one interaction before Sunday’s game at Huntington Bank Field.

Kittle’s 49ers made easy work of the Browns, who struggled offensively in Shedeur Sanders’ first home start as a pro. The visitors made life frustrating for Cleveland to a point where star wide receiver Jerry Jeudy was seen snapping at Sanders on the sidelines.

Amid another frustrating season for the 3-9 Browns, there is at least one exciting storyline to follow: Myles Garrett needs just four more sacks (he’s up to 19 this year) to break the single-season record of 22.5, shared by Michael Strahan and T.J. Watt.

Before the game, mic’d up cameras caught Kittle and Garrett exchanging friendly requests.

“I just need you to stop chipping me if you don’t mind,” Myles Garrett tells George Kittle.

“No. Dude, your five-sack game was crazy,” Kittle responded. “Keep going man, it’s fun to watch. Please don’t break the record today, but I’ll tell Brock (Purdy) to give you one.”

Garrett requested two in a lighthearted reply. He finished with one in the 26-8 loss.

The good news for Garrett and rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders? The Browns host football’s worst team, the Tennessee Titans, on Sunday. There’s a prime opportunity for Garrett and Sanders to rack up the numbers.

Myles Garrett Should Reconsider His Future With Cleveland

In February, Myles Garrett publicly requested a trade from the Browns, citing his desire to play for a contender. In a surprising twist, however, he ultimately agreed to a four-year extension worth $160 million.

But the Browns are nowhere close to contending. They don’t even know if their long-term starting QB is on the roster. The entire offensive line needs a reboot. The wide receiver room offers little outside of Jerry Jeudy, and there are too many holes in the secondary and at linebacker.

Cleveland is wasting a historic season from Garrett, and he oughta reconsider his future with the club. At 30 years of age, he’s not getting any younger nor closer to a Super Bowl.

Luka Doncic ‘destroys’ the Mavs on his return. Gets standing ovation and shows love to Mark Cuban

Luka Doncic hits 45 points in his first game in Dallas since being traded to the Los Angeles.

It’s rare for a home crowd to cheer the visiting team, but Luka Doncic’s return to Dallas was no ordinary night.

Just days before February’s trade deadline, the Mavericks shocked the NBA by sending their 26-year-old superstar to the Lakers—a move that outraged fans and sparked backlash toward GM Nico Harrison.

On Wednesday, Doncic played his first game back in Dallas since the trade. The arena was filled with fans in both his old Mavs and new Lakers jerseys, many chanting “Fire Nico” in protest.

Despite the emotion in the air, Doncic delivered a dominant performance, scoring a game-high 45 points to lead the Lakers to a 112-97 win. It was a powerful return for one of the league’s brightest stars—and a night Dallas won’t soon forget

The Mavericks pay tribute to Luka Dončić

While the Mavericks’ decision to trade Luka Doncic remains heavily criticized, they handled his return to Dallas with undeniable grace. The organization made sure his first game back as a Laker was met with respect and appreciation.

Every seat in the arena was draped with a T-shirt reading “Hvala za vse,” which translates from Slovenian to “thank you for everything.” It was a thoughtful nod to Doncic’s heritage and impact on the franchise.

Before tip-off, during the starting lineup announcements, the Mavericks played a tribute video showcasing some of Doncic’s most iconic moments in a Dallas jersey. The emotional gesture clearly resonated—moving Doncic to tears in front of the crowd that once called him their own.

Luka Doncic ‘DESTROYS’ his old team

Luka delivered a dazzling performance against his former team, putting up 45 points on 16-of-28 shooting, including 7-of-10 from beyond the arc. He also added 8 rebounds, 6 assists, and 4 steals in a game that showed exactly why he’s one of the best in the league.

From the opening tip, Doncic was locked in. By halftime, Doncic had racked up 31 points on 11-of-16 shooting in just 19 minutes—marking the 10th time in his career he’s scored 30 or more in a single half.

Though his scoring slowed in the second half, he continued to lead effectively, securing both a Lakers win and an unforgettable showing for the fans in Dallas.
