CLEVELAND, Ohio (92.3 The Fan) – Browns left guard Joel Bitonio and defensive end Myles Garrett were named to the NFLPA’s inaugural All-Pro first team Wednesday.
Bitonio and Garrett made the team, which was voted on by their peers and only included starters.
Bitonio, who continues to be one of the most dominant left guards in the NFL, was named to his fifth consecutive Pro Bowl in December. The Cleveland chapter of the Pro Football Writers voted Bitonio as the Joe Thomas Award winner for the 2022 season as the team’s best player.
Garrett received his fourth Pro Bowl nod last month. The 2017 first overall pick tied his own single-season franchise record set a year ago with 16.0 sacks this past season.
