“Yeah something was going to happen “And I’m not a Washington Commander, so I would love to go to the Denver Broncos,” Miller said. “I didn’t get that opportunity for closure. I didn’t get to walk into the stadium and say, ‘Okay, this is my last game,’ or ‘I’m going to do this with the fans.’ I didn’t get that closure. So, I would love to get closure with the Denver Broncos. And if, hey, the Commanders don’t want me, the Denver Broncos don’t want me, there’s a team that’s going to draft me and would love to have my tricks on their roster. I’m just playing it by ear. This is the second time I’ve done it. “I know what to expect. I just have to make the best of whatever decision I make.”
Miller played in 142 games, made three All-Pro teams and was named Super Bowl 50 MVP after being selected second overall by Denver in 2011. Current Broncos general manager George Paton was in his first year with the team when Miller was traded to the Rams in 2021, but the franchise made a significant change of direction by hiring Sean Payton as their head coach in 2023 and were the No. 1 seed in the playoffs. AFC last season.
