Cleveland Browns defensive end Za'Darius Smith is excited to be paired up with Myles Garrett. Smith, who signed with the Browns in free agency this offseason, said that he is looking forward to playing alongside one of the best pass rushers in the NFL.

"I'm excited to be here," Smith said. "I'm excited to play with Myles. I'm excited to play with the rest of the guys on this defense. We have a lot of potential, and I'm excited to see what we can do."

Smith is a three-time Pro Bowler who has 54.5 career sacks. He is coming off a season in which he had 9.5 sacks for the Green Bay Packers. Garrett is a two-time Pro Bowler and one-time All-Pro who has 95 career sacks.

The combination of Smith and Garrett could be one of the most feared pass rushing duos in the NFL. The Browns' defense is already one of the best in the league, and adding Smith could make them even better.

"I think it's going to be a lot of fun," Smith said. "I think we're going to be able to do some great things together."

The Browns are hoping that Smith and Garrett can help them win their first Super Bowl since 1964. The team has made the playoffs in two of the last three seasons, and they are expected to be one of the favorites in the AFC this season.

"We're excited," Smith said. "We're ready to go."
