Garrett, a self-professed Halloween fanatic, also has a two-story skeleton and numerous pumpkins as part of his themed display.
āPeople in my house like to have fun,ā a smirking Garrett said following practice Friday. āIāve always done stuff for Halloween since I was little. My family and my friends thought it would be something cool to do. It's still fun.ā
Arizonaās Kyler Murray, Chicagoās Justin Fields, New Englandās Mac Jones and the Chargersā Justin Herbert also are part of the display at Garrett's home.
Garrett, who has seven sacks in the first five games, set a franchise record with 4 1/2 against Fields on Sept. 26. He took down Herbert once last week and faces Murray on Sunday at FirstEnergy Stadium.
The two-time Pro Bowl selection said he is surprised at the amount of traffic his display has brought into the neighborhood, but has no plans to take it down before Oct. 31.
āI canāt say no to kids, so Iāll definitely be there handing out candy on Halloween,ā Garrett said. āBut grown men and women, please donāt. Hopefully, they can leave me be because thatās my place of refuge and residence.ā
