In a surprising turn of events, Cleveland Browns defensive end Myles Garrett has officially requested a trade, sparking excitement among Dallas Cowboys fans. A viral video from 2017 resurfaced, showing Garrett expressing his desire to play for the Cowboys, saying, "Make it happen. Dak Prescott is leading our team right now...please, I'd love to play in Dallas, just make it happen,

Garrett, who has been a standout player for the Browns since being drafted first overall in 2017, cited his desire to win a Super Bowl as the primary reason for his trade request. Despite his success in Cleveland, including holding the record for career sacks, Garrett has only reached the playoffs twice and has never made it to the Super Bowl.

Cowboys fans are now dreaming of a potential trade that would bring Garrett back to his hometown of Arlington, Texas. Pairing Garrett with Micah Parsons could create a formidable defensive duo, significantly boosting the Cowboys' chances of contending for a championship.

However, the Cowboys' front office has been historically cautious with trades and contract extensions. With the team already over the salary cap for the season, acquiring Garrett would require significant financial maneuvering.

As negotiations unfold, the football world eagerly awaits to see if the Cowboys will make a bold move to fulfill Garrett's long-held wish and potentially end their championship drought and this move could potentially boost their title chances.

With that said, there is no question that people are looking for something to put their hopes high for a championship run and even if they have Micah Parsons, there is still much work to be done in Dallas with a Cowboys team that has disappointed everyone.
