Texas A&M has built a reputation for producing elite NFL talent, and if youre a young pass rusher looking to maximize your potential, College Station might be the best launching pad in the country. Just ask Myles Garrett, who continues to stack accolades at a pace few defenders in league history can match and now even Madden is giving him the kind of respect reserved for legends.Garrett dominated the NFL last season, racking up award after award while cementing himself as the leagues premier defensive force. His historic campaign was headlined by 23 sacks, breaking the singleseason record of 22.5 previously shared by Michael Strahan and T.J. Watt. He also set personal bests in solo tackles (43), sacks (23), and tackles for loss (33), leading the league in both sacks and TFLs. That dominance earned him the ESPY for Best NFL Player.Just before training camp, Garrett added two more trophies to his collection at the 2026 ESPYS. Best RecordBreaking Performance and Best NFL Player, further validating one of the greatest defensive seasons the league has ever seen.Now hes picked up another honor not as flashy as an ESPY, but still a meaningful nod to his status in the sport. In Madden 27, Garrett stands alone as the only edge rusher with a 99 overall rating, marking the third time hes earned the games highest distinction. Hes one of just six players in the league with a 99 rating and the only defender to reach that tier. Former Dallas Cowboy and current Packers star Micah Parsons follows closely behind at 98.High praise from Madden, high praise from the NFL, and yet another reminder.
