The Cleveland Browns shocked the sports world this summer when they traded Defensive Player of the Year Myles Garrett to the Los Angeles Rams after his record-breaking season with the team last year. A big part of why general manager Andrew Berry pulled the trigger was getting a young, up-and-coming player, Jared Verse, back in the trade.
In an interview with PFF, cornerback Denzel Ward was asked about the differences between having Jared Verse on the team and having Myles Garrett. Ward was quick to talk about how great it was to have Garrett before saying anything about Verse and what is different.

He ended up talking about how vocal Verse
is as both a leader and overall personality. Ward talked about Verse bringing so much juice to his leadership style that just wasn’t part of how Garrett held himself when he was in Cleveland. From the outside, it's clear Verse talks and pumps his teammates up, and so far that has helped the defensive line play at a high level.
