Cleveland Browns All-Pro defensive end Myles Garrett and Olympic gold medalist snowboarder Chloe Kim sparked relationship speculation when they attended the Crunchyroll Anime Awards together in Tokyo on Sunday (May 26), TMZ Sports reports.
Garrett, 29, and Kim, 25, appeared to be "quite couple-y," according to the website, which cited sources from the event. The All-Pro defensive end appeared to grin when Kim, who was a presenter at the award show, answered, "romance" when asked about an upcoming sports anime during a red carpet interview.
Kim, a native of Long Beach, California, won gold in the halfpipe at the 2018 Pyeongchang and the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics and has 15 total gold medals across four major snowboarding events including three at the world championships, eight at the Winter X Games and two at the Winter Youth Olympics, as well as a silver and bronze in the Winter X Games.
Garrett and the Browns reached a record-setting contract extension in March, weeks after he publicly requested a trade, which will include $123.5 million in guaranteed money and an average annual salary of $40 million, ESPN's Adam Schefter reported at the time.
Garrett was selected by the Browns at No. 1 overall int he 2017 NFL Draft and has gone on to be one of the best pass rushers in the NFL during his first eight seasons. The former Texas A&M standout is a four-time First-team All-Pro, a two-time Second-team All-Pro and a six-time Pro Bowler, having won NFL Defensive Player of the Year for the first time in his career last February.
Garrett has recorded double-digit sacks during each of the last seven seasons, which included 14 sacks in 2024, matching the same total from the previous season.
