DE Myles Garrett made NFL history in the final game of the regular season as he sacked QB Joe Burrow late in the fourth quarter. His only sack of the game set the NFL single-season sack record at 23 sacks, surpassing Michael Strahan and T.J. Watt, with Strahan originally setting the record at 22.5 sacks during the 2001 season and Watt tying the record in 2021.

According to @NextGenStats, Myles Garrett had a get-off of 0.23 seconds on his record-breaking sack.

To put that in context, his average get-off is 0.70 sec, which leads the league.

That's the fastest time recorded by any player on any sack this year.

Absolute alien.
