Cleveland Browns defensive end Myles Garrett was pulled over in Wayne County, Ohio last month for allegedly driving 94 mph in a 70 mph zone. Newly released bodycam footage shows the deputy initially clocked Garrett at a speed over 100 mph, but ultimately cited him for the lower 94 mph violation, which does not require a mandatory court appearance.

Why it matters

Garrett has a history of speeding incidents in Ohio, including a previous citation for driving 120 mph. This latest case highlights ongoing concerns about professional athletes and high-profile individuals potentially receiving preferential treatment from law enforcement when it comes to traffic violations.

The details

The bodycam video shows the deputy telling Garrett that she is citing him for 94 mph in a 70 mph zone, rather than the higher speed she initially recorded. This lower citation means Garrett is not required to appear in court, and can simply pay the traffic ticket fine of over $100.

  • Garrett was pulled over around 1:35 AM on February 21, 2026.
  • Garrett is scheduled to appear in Wayne County Municipal Court on March 10, 2026.

This incident underscores the ongoing challenges professional athletes face with speeding and reckless driving, as well as concerns about potential preferential treatment from law enforcement. It remains to be seen if Garrett will face any additional consequences beyond the traffic citation.
