Jadeveon Clowney apologized to Myles Garrett about comments that Browns favored him
It's not often you see a player talk about a star teammate the way Jadeveon Clowney did about Myles Garrett. Last week Clowney stated that the Cleveland Browns favored Garrett, forcing him to move around the defense to accommodate Garrett, and that "It's just B.S., and I don't have time for it." Clowney did the predictable thing this week, apologizing but also saying his comments were taken out of context. "As a son and parent I want to fully apologize to anyone I offended, specifically Myles Garrett and his family," Clowney said, according to the Associated Press. I'm doing this because I love the game, but keep [doing things like that] and making me not love the game."

“As a son and parent I want to fully apologize to anyone I offended, specifically Myles Garrett and his family,” Clowney said. Following Clowney's comments, Browns defensive line coach Chris Kiffin revealed that the three-time Pro Bowler refused to refused to play on first or second down on Oct. 23 against Baltimore. Clowney was upset Cleveland had changed its game plan in order to give Garrett more favorable matchups. He also said he didn't take Clowney's comments personally, but added he won't play with anyone who doesn't want to be in Cleveland.
