Trent Williams Reacts to Rams' Acquisition of Myles Garrett: "It Sucks"

The Los Angeles Rams' recent trade for Myles Garrett has positioned the reigning Defensive Player of the Year as a significant challenge for the teams in the NFC West. While the AFC North teams celebrated the move, the 49ers, Cardinals, and Seahawks began analyzing film on their new rival's standout edge rusher.

In response to Garrett's addition to the Rams, 49ers left tackle Trent Williams provided a candid assessment that resonated with his teammates and fans alike. He remarked, “It sucks,” eliciting laughter from those around him, as captured in a video shared by the team.

Garrett, who is 30 years old, made a notable impact during his previous encounters with the 49ers. In last season's matchup, he recorded a sack and three quarterback hits during the 49ers' 26-8 victory over the Browns. However, in the 2023 game where the Browns edged out the 49ers 19-17, Garrett's performance was less impactful, with no sacks and just one quarterback hit.

Having set an NFL record for single-season sacks with 23 last year, Garrett brings a total of 125.5 sacks to his career, making him a formidable force in the league.
