Myles Garrett wants to add another name to his list.
The former Defensive Player of the Year and Cleveland Browns franchise player is eyeing Aaron Rodgers to add to his collection.

Collection of what? Tombstones.
Garrett spoke to reporters on Tuesday afternoon during minicamp and was asked about Rodgers joining the Pittsburgh Steelers and what that means for the AFC North.
“I think it’s a good opportunity to put him in the graveyard,” Garrett answered with a wry smile.
Garrett’s infamous graveyard has become quite famous over the years.
During Halloween, the All-Pro defender decorates his house and puts up all sorts of spooky decorations.
However, most notably is the graveyard that overtakes the front yard during October.
The graveyard is comprised of tombstones with the names of quarterbacks in which Garrett has sacked over the course of his career.
He has never sacked the four-time league MVP and will now get two games to try and add Rodgers to the long list of names and victims.
However, Garrett may want to tread lightly.
The Browns don’t exactly have the strongest history when it comes to beating the Steelers.

Although Garrett is talking about just wanting to sack Rodgers, not necessarily beating him and the Steelers, there’s no doubt he would rather have the latter.
History doesn’t favor Cleveland much in the rivalry.
Over the last 10 seasons, the Browns have a 5-14-1 record versus the Steelers.
Garrett himself is just 5-8-1.
However in those 14 games, he has 13 sacks.
The Browns and Steelers first meet on Oct. 12 in Pittsburgh.

Ranking the top 10……
The final matchup between the two comes on Dec. 28 back in Cleveland.
Garrett will have his chances to add Rodgers to his graveyard.
Time will tell if he takes advantage.
