Cleveland Browns rookie defensive end Myles Garrett has been in the concussion protocol this week. On Thursday, the team announced that he won’t play — or even make the trip — to London in Week 8 against the Minnesota Vikings.

Garrett has been effective when he’s been on the field this year, recording four sacks in only three games.
The drawback is that Sunday will mark the fifth missed game for 2017’s No. 1 overall pick. He also missed the first four weeks of the season with an ankle injury.
