Halloween took place on Friday, and Myles Garrett and the Cleveland Browns had the opportunity to celebrate. Halloween is not a holiday that NFL players often have the opportunity to celebrate. It takes place in the middle of the season, and as a result, it is challenging for them to properly enjoy the day while focusing on their game that week. However, Garrett was in a unique position because the Browns are on a bye this week.
As a result, he was able to go all out with a terrifyingly accurate Freddy Krueger costume. He is the iconic villain from A Nightmare on Elm Street. He teamed up with special effects artist Mike Castro and MadnessFX to make the costume.

“Damn you should’ve been something scary like the offense!!” one fan commented.

Fans continued to react on Instagram.

“Jacked Freddy Kruger isn’t real, he can’t hurt you. Jacked Freddy Kruger,” one fan commented.
“Freddy Kruger sees the patriots in his dreams,” one fan added.
Myles Garrett Has Become Known for His Halloween Costumes
While Myles Garrett is known for striking fear in the hearts of NFL offenses, he is also known for his terrifying Halloween costumes.
