Summary
The Rams pulled off a savvy move by trading for Myles Garrett and restructuring his contract — not extending him, but strategically adjusting cap hits to keep costs low now while setting up future negotiations. His 2026 cap number? Just $8.4 million — a steal compared to top pass rushers’ market rates. Experts say this is a placeholder deal, designed to keep both sides motivated for renegotiation next year. With other stars signing bigger deals since Garrett’s last contract, this move gives the Rams flexibility to stay competitive, maximize their championship window, and preserve cap space for the future.
