Myles Garrett Jumped Over Everyone to Block a FG, and NFL Fans Were in Awe

Myles Garrett NFL Browns (Organization) Colts CBS Indianapolis (Organization)

Since the moment Myles Garrett entered the league, he's been one of the most dominant defenders in the NFL.

Heading into Sunday's game against the Colts, Garrett was one of the favorites to be named Defensive Player of the Year at the end of the season, and with his performance against Indianapolis, he might have put one hand on the trophy.

Garrett's first game-changing play came not on defense, but special teams. With the Colts and Browns tied 14-14 in the second quarter, Indianapolis was lining up for a 60-yard field goal attempt.

Lined up in the middle of the block team, Garrett timed his jump over the line perfectly, clearing everyone and smothering the ball right off the kicker's foot.

It's the most athletic football play you will see all day.

Fans following the action from home were in awe of Garrett's leap.

Garrett wasn't done making plays. Later in the quarter, he had a strip sack of Gardner Minshew in the end zone, leading to a Browns recovery for a touchdown.

In the first half alone, Garrett had two sacks, two forced fumbles, a blocked field goal, and six tackles against the Colts.

Not a bad way to start the day.
