After having made one of the most disappointing seasons of any NFL team last fall, the Browns of Cleveland have a plethora of decisions to take in 2025, from whom to write, to which the players will sign and if not exchange their or No, their franchise player, Myles Garrett.
However, there is a decision that the Browns cannot control: the retirement of the professional goalkeeper Joel Bitonio, the long -standing faithful on the left side which would enter his 12th consecutive season with the team if he had chosen to Bring it back for another season in Cleveland.
Bitonio, who will be 34 years old in October, would be to play another season for the Browns if they seek to undergo a gentle reconstruction under the trainer of the year Kevin Stefanski, exchanging their best player to obtain assets of consolidation of Indispensable team before heading to the assets of the team that so much necessary for what is headed for the start of the team that was heading for the right well in the future? Or would such an influence on a decision mean a reconstruction and the need to move on to your own future opportunities? Well, frankly, it’s difficult to say, but in an interview with Brownszone, Bitonio revealed that he will soon have a decision on the subject, but He probably won’t have much to do With the future of Garrett anyway.
“I don’t think his request will really have an impact on my decision. I understand that he is frustrated. We were all frustrated last year. It was disappointing. So I understand the origin of Myles Garrett, ”explained Bitonio via Brownszone.

“Obviously, we want Myles on the Browns of Cleveland. He is the best rusher of pass in the league. You don’t want to get rid of a generational player like that. So we hope they will be able to settle things. We want Myles to be a Cleveland Brown for a long time.
On the one hand, Bitonio is right to feel as if Garrett’s decision would have nothing to do with his. Garrett is an absolute force of nature, a massive mountain of a man who can attack editors of opposing offensive lines with an incredible unlikely ferocity, and if the Browns will bounce, it will be much easier to do with the Texas A&M product precipitated the passer as his focal point player. That being said, the Browns were very bad with Garrett on their list and would probably be even worse if he leaves; Does Bitonio really want to participate in a reconstruction at this stage of the game, or worse, be exchanged another team because it is no longer suitable for a list of Browns Re-out?
For better or for worse, the Browns are not what you would call a solid rebound candidate to go from the second overall choice of the AFC championship, Washington Commanders style. If the Browns go to another brutal campaign, perhaps Bitonio would be wise to go to sunset, knowing that it will undoubtedly descend as brown of all time, whatever the way the 2025 season of The NFL takes place. Otherwise, it could be a long year that does not necessarily end in Cleveland.
