Where Does Myles Garrett Rank Among the NFL’s Top 100?
Sporting No. 15 for the Texas A&M Aggies defense from 2014-2016, Myles Garrett was a name that haunted opposing quarterbacks, tallying 32.5 sacks and forcing seven fumbles in his three collegiate years.
Now wearing No. 95 for the Cleveland Browns in the NFL, none of that has changed in the slightest.
Since being taken first overall in the 2017 NFL Draft, Myles Garrett has been a cornerstone of the Browns’ defense — one of the fiercest in the entire league. As a team that plays their home games at the “Dawg Pound,” that shouldn’t come as a surprise.
Garrett has made his presence felt in the pros since 2017, already racking up 88.5 sacks and forcing 17 fumbles — being named an NFL All-Pro in nearly every year since then, including a first-teamer in 2020, 2021 and 2023.
Garrett’s defense prowess was truly realized in 2023, when his 14 sacks, four forced fumbles and 42 total tackles won him his first-ever NFL Defensive Player of the Year award ahead of T.J. Watt and Micah Parsons.
With the prestige, many expect him to rank high on the NFL’s annual Top 100 Players list, which is voted on by the pros themselves.
The five-time Pro Bowler must’ve done quite a job terrorizing opposing offenses, as he was ranked fifth on the list this year, the highest ranked Aggie football player ever on the list.
The Cleveland Browns finished second in the AFC North in 2023 with an 11-6 record, two games behind the Baltimore Ravens. The Browns had to push through injuries to stars such as quarterback Deshaun Watson and running back Nick Chubb, but the defense was able to lead the Browns to the playoffs, where they came up short to the Houston Texans.
This year’s No. 1 NFL player was Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill, followed by MVP Lamar Jackson, Offensive Player of the Year Christian McCaffrey, and Super Bowl MVP Patrick Mahomes.
Safe to say, Garrett is in good company.

Texas man accused of killing pregnant wife allegedly cuts off ankle monitor and flees to Italy
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
A Texas man facing charges for allegedly killing his pregnant wife has reportedly cut off his ankle monitor and fled abroad.
Lee Mongerson Gilley, 39, is accused of murdering his wife, Christa Bauer Gilley, and the couple’s unborn child in Houston in 2024, according to KPRC.
Gilley was set to appear in court Tuesday, but instead flew from Texas to Canada, and finally Italy, where he told authorities he was seeking asylum after being “wrongfully prosecuted” and is fearful of receiving the death penalty, his attorney told the outlet.
“I’m concerned that the prosecution will try to say that it’s evidence of consciousness of guilt that he’s running from it, but I think he’s just scared,” defense attorney Dick DeGuerin reportedly said.

Gilley, whose murder trial was set to begin later this month, is reportedly in the custody of Italian authorities. His ankle monitor alerted authorities it had been tampered with on Friday, according to the outlet.
DeGuerin told the outlet that before Gilley can be returned to Texas, the state must certify to Italy that he is not eligible for the death penalty — which the prosecution is not seeking in his case.

Prosecutors reportedly allege Gilley initially claimed Christa, who was nine months pregnant, had overdosed and that he had tried to save her with CPR, but a medical examiner later pointed to evidence of strangulation and ruled her death a homicide.

After he was arrested days later, Gilley allegedly admitted his wife was not a drug user or suicidal, and that the couple had been arguing before her death, KPRC reported.
In 2025, while out on bond, prosecutors reportedly allege Gilley and an unnamed woman, whom he had an affair with in 2023, devised a scheme to flee to Mexico and other countries, according to the outlet.

“The Defendant also inquired as to whether she knew of a Mexican identity he could acquire to facilitate his departure from the country,” the document said.
Gilley also allegedly “provided a detailed plan” to remove his GPS monitor and perform a sham marriage to obtain a new identity, prosecutors reportedly said.

Longhorns Daily News: Texas baseball’s Dylan Volantis named SEC’s Co-Pitcher of the Week
The Southeastern Conference (SEC) announced on Monday that Texas baseball pitcher Dylan Volantis will share this week’s Pitcher of the Week award with LSU’s Zac Cowan. From Texas Athletics’ announcement:
“Against No. 10 Mississippi State, Volantis registered a co-career-best 12 strikeouts and scattered three singles across six scoreless innings. After the Bulldogs notched a two-out infield hit in the first, the 6-foot-6, 220-pound left-hander retired 10 of the next 11 batters he faced. Volantis capped off that stretch by punching out the side on only 10 pitches in the fourth. Overall, the Thousand Oaks, Calif., native threw 107 pitches, which marked the most by a Longhorn this year. In Texas’ 3-1 victory, the Longhorns totaled 19 strikeouts, tying their most in a nine-inning game in program history.“
