Speaking to Cleveland.com, Sgt. Ray Santiago said he's grateful that Garrett is okay:
“We’re very grateful that he and his passenger are alive."
Santiago emphasized that the defensive end “was definitely not impaired by drugs or alcohol.” He also said that both he and his passenger were wearing seat belts when the gray 2021 Porsche 911 Turbo S turned over multiple times.
Garrett and his status versus the Falcons
A source close to the situation said it’s ‘too early’ to say if he will suit up and play versus the Falcons on the road in Atlanta. But given the severity of the accident, there’s a high probability that the defensive end won't see any game action.
The accident is now under investigation by the Ohio State Highway Patrol, and the the team is collecting more information. Santiago added:
“We’re looking into everything to make sure we’re thorough, just as we would with any crash investigation."
Luckily, Garrett and his passenger are fine. Until he is given a clean bill of health, playing in the upcoming game should be placed on the backburner given the severity of the incident.
