Browns' Garrett doesn't expect to miss time after suffering groin injury

The Cleveland Browns may have avoided another significant loss to the roster.

Defensive end Myles Garrett suffered a groin injury during the second half of Monday's 16-14 loss to the Las Vegas Raiders and appeared to be in discomfort but didn't exit the game.

The All-Pro pass-rusher said postgame that he won't miss any time moving forward.

"It was tough, it hurt, but everybody's hurtin'," Garrett said, according to NFL.com's Grant Gordon. "I don't want to say I'm special. Everybody's fighting through something. You're gonna have to kill me to take me off the field, or you gonna have to break my leg. You're gonna have to take me completely out because I'm gonna go out there until I can't."

Garrett finished the contest with three tackles and one tackle for a loss. The NFL also named him to the 2022 Pro Bowl roster Monday.

The Browns entered Week 15 with 19 players on the COVID-19 list, including starting quarterback Baker Mayfield, wide receiver Jarvis Landry, and offensive tackle Jedrick Wills.

The league moved the Browns-Raiders game to Monday evening after postponing the matchup initially scheduled for Dec. 18.

Cleveland owns a 7-7 record following the loss and sits last in the AFC North.

The Browns will play the Green Bay Packers on Christmas Day.
