{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Cleveland Browns defensive end Myles Garrett made an appearance at a local charity event Tuesday in the wake of his indefinite suspension over his helmet-swinging incident nearly two weeks ago.
Garrett showed up with his Browns teammates Baker Mayfield, Christian Kirksey and J.C. Tretter and UFC champion Stipe Miocic at the 7th annual Feed the Need event at Town Hall in Cleveland, according to the Cleveland Plain-Dealer. The players helped serve those in need and Garrett addressed the media in between helping out.

The star defensive lineman then was asked about the “tough time” he was going through.

Garrett had accused Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Mason Rudolph of hurling a racial slur toward him, escalating the fight. The NFL said it found “no such evidence” that occurred. Garrett defended himself, saying he knew what he heard but ultimately shouldn’t have acted out of control.
