Aggies in the NFL: former No.1 pick shines in Monday Night Football debut

COLLEGE STATION - Expectations were high for Myles Garrett when he selected first overall in the 2017 NFL Draft. The former Texas A&M defensive end shined for the Aggies' defense, collecting 31 career sacks and 141 tackles.

Three years into his NFL career and the former Aggies has transformed into one of the league's top pass rusher. After a promising sophomore campaign, Garrett was expected to contend for Defensive Player of the Year honors in 2019.

In his first two games, Garrett is already leading the NFL in total sacks. On Monday against the New York Jets, the 23-year-old pass rusher collected five total tackles, three for sacks in the Cleveland Browns 23-3 victory.

For the season, Garrett now has five sacks, one more than Tampa Bay Buccaneers' Shaquill Barrett. With the Los Angeles Rams arriving to town on Sunday night, fans could expect to see a defensive showcase featuring the young pass rusher and 2018 Defensive Player of the Year Aaron Donald.

Let's check in to see how the rest of the Aggies preformed over the weekend.
