He legitimately has gold jacket possibilities in his future.""He's just a monster. He's a fantastic player. He legitimately has gold jacket possibilities in his future."Of course, the nod to a gold jacket is a reference to the color of the jacket that NFL Hall of Fame players are given to wear at the Hall of Fame induction ceremonies.This is the highest praise one NFL player can give to another, and it is obvious that Rodgers has genuine respect for Garrett's level of play since he has been in the NFL.And it can't hurt to suck up to your opponent who just happens to be built like a Ford truck.Flash Garrett ⚡️@Flash_GarrettI go sleeveless for one game and they hit me with a “you got a random drug test in the morning”🤦🏾‍♂️😂8:05 AM · Oct 4, 202113628410731I go sleeveless for one game and they hit me with a “you got a random drug test in the morning”🤦🏾‍♂️😂 https://t.co/P3i2EMHuFDCan Myles Garrett and the Browns upset the Packers?Divisional Round - Cleveland Browns v Kansas City ChiefsThe answer to this question begins with the health of the team. In Monday's loss to the Raiders, the Browns were without 22 players due to them being placed on the injured reserve/COVID-19 list due to testing positive.Starting quarterback Baker Mayfield, as well as backup quarterback Case Keenum, were two of those on the list and the team went into the game with third-string quarterback Nick Mullens as the starter.For the Browns to pull off an upset victory over the Packers, the health of their players is imperative. The team will also need a lights-out performance from Myles Garrett.The 6'4" 272 pounder has 15 sacks this season, which is currently third in the league. Garrett will likely need that number increased on Christmas Day for his team to have any chance of winning.Also check out: Complete Monday Night Football Schedule 2021
