The Cleveland Browns officially announced a historic achievement for Myles Garrett on Monday. The superstar defensive end was named to the PFWA All-NFL Team for a record-breaking sixth consecutive year.
This milestone isn't just a team best; it is currently the longest active streak in the league, further cementing Garrett’s status as the most dominant force in football today.
With this sixth selection, Garrett officially ties a legendary mark held by the great Reggie White, who also earned six straight nods between 1987 and 1992. To put this consistency into perspective, Garrett is now outpacing other defensive titans in total All-NFL selections.

Hall of Fame legend Michael Strahan finished his career with four such honors, while Steelers rival T.J. Watt currently holds five. Of course, one of the reasons Garrett was recognized once again was for breaking the single season sack record of Strahan and Watt this year with an unbelievable 23-sack campaign.
Here are updated comparisons featuring total PFWA All-NFL selections:
Career PFWA All-NFL Selections (Defensive Ends)
| Player | Total | Teams | Career |
| Myles Garrett | 6 | Cleveland Browns | 2017–Present |
| Reggie White | 11 | PHI, GB, CAR | 1985–2000 |
| T.J. Watt | 5 | Pittsburgh Steelers | 2017–Present |
| Michael Strahan | 4 | New York Giants | 1993–2007 |
Garrett’s six total selections are even more impressive considering he earned them all consecutively (2020–2025), a feat even the "Minister of Defense" White only achieved once in his storied 15-year career.
A Resume for the Ages
Since the Cleveland Browns made him the No. 1 overall pick in the 2017 NFL Draft, Garrett has transitioned from a high-potential prospect to a generational lock for the Hall of Fame.
His career honors now include:
NFL Single-Season Sack Record Holder (23.0 Sacks)
NFL Defensive Player of the Year (2023, and favorite to win in 2025)
6x PFWA All-NFL Team Selection (2020–2025)
5x AP First-Team All-Pro (seven total All-Pro honors)
7x Pro Bowl Selection
2025 Deacon Jones Award Winner (NFL Sack Leader)
PFWA All-Rookie Team (2017)
By surpassing Strahan and matching the efficiency of the greatest to ever play, Garrett has firmly placed himself at the top of the NFL’s defensive hierarchy. At just 30 years old, the "Sack King" is far from finished.
