Myles Garrett’s award-winning night got a little sweeter thanks to a familiar face.
The Rams pass rusher took home the ESPY Award for Best Record-Breaking Performance on Wednesday night at the Lincoln Center in New York.
But not only did Garrett get some hardware, but he was presented with the award — and an on-stage kiss — by his girlfriend, Olympic snowboarder Chloe Kim.
“Thank you, babe, for keeping a secret like that because you definitely knew,” Garrett said at Lincoln Center after winning the ESPY. “Most of all this is an honor, and I’ve got a lot of catching up to do with this woman behind me.”
Garrett beat UCLA softball’s Megan Grant, gold medal cross-Country Skier Johannes Høsflot Klæbo and long-distance runner Sabastian Sawe for the ESPY after his 23-sack campaign in 2025 for the Browns set an NFL record.
Kim and Garrett posed for photos on the red carpet before the show, with Garrett wearing a white shirt and black pants without a jacket while Kim wore a red dress.
Kim has won her own share of ESPYs (five), at one point winning Best Female Action Sports Athlete in three years in a row.
Garrett, after his thrilling season, went to Italy to support Kim in the 2026 Winter Olympics, where she took home silver in the halfpipe even after suffering a torn labrum in her left shoulder after a training session weeks before the Games.
The seven-time Pro Bowler will have a new home this season after getting traded to the Rams in a blockbuster deal in June.
“Since the very beginning, it’s always been about winning, and it just breaks down to the timing of everything,” Garrett said at his introductory press conference. “What does it realistically look like to be a winner now and to have an opportunity to do that immediately?
“That was an opportunity that was just too difficult to pass up.”
