Professional career

Pittsburgh Steelers

After going undrafted in the 2013 NFL Draft, Garvin wasn’t immediately signed as a free agent. He was invited to attend Pittsburgh Steelers rookie minicamp on a tryout basis and was signed to the 90-man roster on May 6. He was waived on August 31 and then re-signed to the team’s practice squad. On September 3, 2013, Garvin was signed to the active roster. He saw action against the Cincinnati Bengals in week 15 and gained notoriety when he broke the jaw of Bengals punter Kevin Huber with a hard hit during a runback for touchdown by Antonio Brown. The block was not penalized at the time, but was later ruled illegal by the NFL and cost him a $25,000 fine.
