We need Sherlock Holmes on the case because the mysterious foot injury plaguing Myles Garrett the entire season continues. Garrett did not practice on Wednesday because of it.
Garrett's foot injury has never been defined or explained. We know it did not happen in a game. He said that after the loss to Dallas.

It must be a nagging issue because he was ambivalent about whether it would bother him during the Week 2 Jacksonville game. After the game, he admitted it "didn't feel great."

Garrett did not play in the preseason. He did not appear to sustain an injury in training camp practice because that certainly would have been reported.
With that being said, what is it? And why is no one speaking in specifics about it?
Pessimistic fans are concerned that the reigning DPOY could have an issue that either eventually causes him to miss time or hinders him for the entire season. Turf toe comes to mind though there has been nothing to indicate that could be what it is.
How can one of the best players on the team, a team captain, a Pro Bowler, and the heart of the defense continue to deal with an injury week after week, miss practice, and no one in the public knows what it is?
It is a mystery that is now in its third week.
