Myles Garrett Injury: Browns DE Suffers Dislocated Toe During Pro Bowl
2 min read • February 06, 2023
After logging his second straight regular season campaign with 16 sacks, Browns defensive end Myles Garrett suffered a dislocated toe on his right foot during the gridiron gauntlet event on Pro Bowl Sunday.
By video, Garrett likely did not suffer a dislocated big toe, which could have had offseason implications, according to the Pro Football Docs.
The injury appeared to be to his pinky toe or one of the middle three toes, based on video of him limping and reaching down to check on the injury after it happened.
If he had injured his big toe, it would have likely meant surgery and a less than ideal recovery which could have bled into the next regular season. The report that his X-rays came back negative likely means there was no associated fracture or the toe self reduced - slid back into place on its own.
