One Cleveland Browns player hopes to bring a little Halloween scare to Tom Brady.

Browns defensive end Myles Garrett was asked Wednesday about Brady ahead of his team’s matchup Sunday against the New England Patriots.

“You have to make sure he’s seeing ghosts,” Garrett said with a smile.

Myles Garrett says pressuring Tom Brady is easier said than done, but “you have to make sure he’s seeing ghosts.”

“He’s holding the ball, patting it, looking for other options, you can have some time to get the ball out his hands, strip him and get the ball for your offense,” Garrett continued, according to WKYC-TV.

The comment was a subtle, or not so subtle, dig at New York Jets quarterback Sam Darnold, who was caught on camera saying he was seeing ghost during his team’s 33-0 loss against the Patriots on “Monday Night Football.”

Many Jets, including running back Le’Veon Bell and coach Adam Gase, are unhappy that NFL Films allowed the clip to be aired during the broadcast.

While the Browns have fallen short of some expectations, Patriots coach Bill Belichick spoke highly of the matchup with Garrett. He praised the second-year player saying, “He’s pretty much impossible to block … Got great power and explosion, good get-off, very athletic and he’s blocked but then he doesn’t stay blocked, he comes free quickly and escapes and gets off blocks.”

The Browns (2-4) and Patriots (7-0) face off at 4:25 p.m. Sunday at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Mass.

The Steelers are tied with the Browns in the AFC North. Pittsburgh hosts the Miami Dolphins on Monday night at Heinz Field.
