Early years and sports career

LaMonica Garrett was born in San Francisco, California. He was named after former Oakland Raiders quarterback Daryle Lamonica, of whom his parents were avid fans. Garrett was a football player in high school. When his family and a friend were relocated to Burbank High School, they were taken to Burbank High School. Garrett has said that although his friend made the varsity team, he was held off on the junior varsity team due to his ego and attitude. In a Muscle and Fitness magazine interview, he referred to this event as a "wake-up call," which taught him both humility and accountability—and drove him to the gym."

Garrett began playing out more often and excelled on offense as a result. He played for a Los Angeles junior college after high school, where he played as a linebacker. Garrett eventually moved to Central State University in Ohio, where he continued to play. He led the team in tackles at one time. Garrett considered joining the league, but after having "a great Pro Day" and some workouts with the Detroit Lions and the Los Angeles Rams, he was not selected up.

Garrett had always been fascinated with acting, so he moved to Los Angeles to pursue a career in theatre. In the meantime, he worked as a FedEx driver to pay for acting classes. Garrett also started playing Slamball, a combination of basketball and football played with trampolines. He was the league's top scorer and one of four players announced for the All Slamball Team during his time playing.

Mike Ritter's character made him a fan favorite, and Garrett stayed with the show through the first two seasons before its cancellation.
