"Von Miller left the Washington Commanders wanting another go-around with the franchise in 2026. The aging edge rusher thought he was joining a Super Bowl contender, and even though things didn't work out that way, he outlined his desire to help get this storied club back on track. It didn't take long for that to change, which could hint that a difficult conversation has already taken place between Miller and those in positions of power."
"Y'all make room for me after this season. Y'all make room for me over there with the Denver Broncos. I would love to be in that linebacker room and give Nic Bonnito all the knowledge that I've got. Everything that I've got, for him to be the best version of himself. I would love to be a Denver Bronco next season and contribute in any way that I can to improve those guys."
Von Miller left the Washington Commanders wanting another go-around with the franchise in 2026. He believed he was joining a Super Bowl contender but that outcome did not materialize. He expressed desire to help return the franchise to competitiveness. Washington's pass-rush depth remained thin; Miller finished 2025 as the team's sack leader with nine. General manager Adam Peters plans to upgrade the edge-rushing room, which could reduce Miller's role. Miller publicly urged the Denver Broncos to create a roster spot for him in 2026 so he can mentor young players like Nic Bonitto and finish his career in Denver. He remained a serviceable pass-rusher at age 36.
