Von Miller ’s legacy in Denver is already set in stone. From dominating pass rushes to earning Super Bowl 50 MVP honors, the linebacker spent the prime of his career anchoring the Broncos defense. Yet as he enters the twilight of his NFL journey, Miller is chasing one more opportunity—just not in Denver, at least not this season.
Von Miller addresses 2025 future and explains why rejoining the Broncos isn’t in his plans
Now 36, Von Miller remains a free agent following his release by the Buffalo Bills in March. While many veterans at this stage consider retirement, Miller insists he still has gas left in the tank. "I can get out of bed and rush the passer and get sacks,” he said. “I can fall out of bed and do that… I can roll off the bed and get sacks in my house shoes still today at 36 years old."
That self-belief isn’t unfounded. Over his career, Miller has racked up 129.5 sacks, proving time and again that he can still be a difference-maker. He knows his value doesn’t just lie in statistics but also in the locker room culture he helps build. “I don’t like to toot my own horn — but when it comes to the locker room and being around the guys, I just have that ability,” Miller added. “From the star quarterback to the new, undrafted rookies.”
Despite his confidence, Miller remains realistic about where he fits into the current NFL landscape—especially in Denver. The Broncos, who once relied on his leadership and dominance, now boast a younger core of pass rushers. “They’ve got two really, really good rushers that are best in the league with Jonathon Cooper and Nik Bonitto,” Miller acknowledged. “And the guys underneath them… they come in and produce sacks, too. And they play special teams.”
That last part is key. At 36, Miller openly admits that special teams isn't where he belongs anymore. “I’m not playing special teams, so that kind of makes the decision itself,” he said with a smile. “This year, probably not. The year after that, we’ll see what happens.”
His comments leave the door open for a future reunion with the Broncos, even if this season may not be the right time. “I haven’t heard anything,” he said, “but… this year, it really doesn’t make sense.”
Still, his deep connection to Denver hasn’t faded. On a recent visit for his nonprofit Von’s Vision—now 14 years strong—he helped distribute glasses to local kids, demonstrating his continued commitment to the community. “Driving by the stadium… it was incredible,” Miller reflected. “… It was all love and all respect. Mutual respect from both sides. It will always be love here.”
Whether Miller suits up for another franchise or eventually returns to Denver, one thing is clear—his passion for the game hasn’t waned. And for any team seeking leadership, experience, and a proven sack artist, Von Miller remains ready to answer the call.

Von Miller is set on playing at least one more season, he said. Just doesn’t know where it will be yet.
