The Cleveland Browns will exercise the fifth-year option for both defensive end Myles Garrett and tight end David Njoku, according to Mary Kay Cabot of Cleveland.com.

It will keep both players under team control through the 2021 season.

Garrett and Njoku were each selected in the first round of the 2017 draft, two of three first-round picks for Cleveland that year. Safety Jabrill Peppers was also taken in the first round but was traded to the New York Giants as part of the Odell Beckham Jr.
