For years, it was clear that DT Aaron Donald was the best defensive player in the NFL. In general, that was widely agreed to and assumed even if he wasn’t getting all of the awards. Since Donald’s retirement, Cleveland Browns DE Myles Garrett has clearly assumed that title.
Last year, Garrett pulled in his first AP Defensive Player of the Year while garnering the award for basically all the outlets that present DPOY including The Sporting News and Pro Football Writers of America.
