News

  • Cleared for Tuesday's game

    Miller was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list ahead of Tuesday's game against the Seahawks.

    Analysis: Miller was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list last Thursday, but according to Adam Schefter of ESPN, he was able to test out of the protocol five days later, which implies that the edge rusher was deactivated due to a positive test. Given the brevity of his absence, Miller shouldn't face any limitations Tuesday, despite his lack of practice reps leading up to the contest. Since being acquired from the Broncos in early November, Miller has appeared in four games for Los Angeles, recording 13…read more

  • Lands on COVID-19 list

    Miller (illness) was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday.

    Analysis: Miller was among several Rams players to land on the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday. It's unclear whether he tested positive or was a close contact, though he could have the chance to return for Sunday's game against Seattle under either circumstance as long as he's vaccinated. Miller has not recorded a sack since being traded to Los Angeles, though he has been a key figure in the team's defense.

  • Debuting for Rams

    Miller (ankle) is active for Monday's game at San Francisco, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Miller was acquired from the Broncos at the start of November and was unavailable for Week 9 due to the ankle injury, but he's set to make his debut for the Rams on Monday Night Football. The 32-year-old posted 19 tackles (10 solo) and 4.5 sacks before the trade, and he should benefit from playing alongside the likes of Aaron Donald with Los Angeles.

  • Expected to debut barring setback

    Miller (ankle) will make his Rams debut Monday against the 49ers barring a setback, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Miller reportedly has had a strong week of practice, leading to optimism around his availability. The veteran pass rusher was acquired in a trade from Denver earlier this season. He remains listed as questionable on the injury report.

  • Questionable against 49ers

    Miller (ankle) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the 49ers, Jourdan Rodrigue of the Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Miller failed to practice Thursday, but limited sessions Friday and Saturday suggest he has a chance to make his Rams debut in prime time Monday. The future Hall of Famer last suited up in Week 7, back when he was a member of the Broncos.

  • Logs limited practice

    Miller (ankle) was a limited participant at Friday's practice, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: This comes after Miller was a non-participant Thursday, so it looks like he is trending in the right direction. Coach Sean McVay has indicated the team is preparing as if its recently acquired linebacker will play Monday against the 49ers, but the Rams will still need to evaluate his mobility prior to the game. Saturday's practice report should offer even more clarity on his status.

  • No practice Thursday

    Miller (ankle) did not practice Thursday.

    Analysis: This was the first practice of the week for the Rams due to their matchup against the 49ers coming on Monday night. As a result, the fact that Miller did not practice is not all that concerning, though head coach Sean McVay was non-committal regarding Miller's status for the matchup, according to Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic. McVay did add that he is preparing as if Miller will play, but the team will have to evaluate his mobility prior to the game.

  • Week 10 status TBD

    The Rams plan to take it day-by-day with Miller (ankle) ahead of their Week 10 matchup with the 49ers, Stu Jackson of the team's official website reports.

    Analysis: Miller, who was acquired by the Rams via trade last week, is waiting patiently to debut with his new team. He is still rehabbing a left ankle sprain, so his status will need to be monitored throughout the week. His ability to pass a physical during the trade process indicates the issue should not keep him out for too long.

  • Inactive against Tennessee

    Miller (ankle) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Titans, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site reports.

    Analysis: Although Miller passed a physical when he was traded from the Broncos to the Rams on Monday, he'll be forced to miss a second straight game due to a left ankle sprain. With Chris Garrett (coach's decision) also unavailable, Terrell Lewis and Ogbonnia Okoronkwo could see increased playing time.

  • Looks unlikely for Week 9

    Miller (ankle), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Titans, appears unlikely to play, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Though Miller passed a physical upon being acquired from the Broncos on Monday, the Rams don't seem inclined to have the pass-rushing linebacker make his team debut until he's 100 percent. Miller is still scheduled to go through a pregame warmup Sunday, but if his sprained left ankle is bothering him at all, he'll likely have to wait until Week 10 in San Francisco to suit up for Los Angeles.

  • Week 9 status hinges on warmups

    The Rams continue to list Miller (ankle) as questionable for Sunday's game against the Titans and will have him take part in pregame warmups before a decision is made on his status, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Los Angeles was confident enough in the health of Miller's sprained left ankle to acquire him from Denver on Monday, but there's still a chance that his Rams debut will have to wait another week. He was limited in practice Thursday before sitting out Friday's session entirely, prompting the Rams to label him a game-time decision heading into the weekend. Miller's situation doesn't appear to have changed much as Sunday's 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff approaches.

  • Game-time decision Sunday

    Miller (ankle) is officially listed as questionable, and coach Sean McVay has told reporters that the linebacker is going to be a game-time decision Sunday against the Titans, Lindsey Thiry of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Miller injured his ankle with the Broncos in Week 7. The linebacker has since been traded to the Rams and will look to make his L.A. debut Sunday against the Titans. Miller managed to practice in a limited capacity Thursday and Friday, so it's possible the 32-year-old is able to suit up and see limited availability in his Rams debut. Expect Chris Garrett to see snaps at outside linebacker if Miller is unable to play.

  • Gets in limited practice

    Miller (ankle) logged a limited practice Thursday, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Miller was unable to practice Wednesday, so this is a step in the right direction for the Rams' new star linebacker. Miller left the Broncos' Week 7 contest against Cleveland early before missing their Week 8 game against Washington. Miller will try to make his Rams debut in Week 9 against the Titans, but it's possible the team exhibits some extra caution with its newest acquisition.

  • Misses practice Wednesday

    Miller (ankle) missed the Rams' practice Wednesday, Lindsey Thiry of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Miller was seen doing drills off to the side during the Rams' practice Wednesday. The linebacker didn't seem to be favoring either ankle, which is a good sign. While Miller's status for Week 9 is up in the air, the recently traded linebacker does acknowledge that he feels good about his recovery process. Expect Chris Garrett to see snaps at outside linebacker until Miller is healthy enough to make his Los Angeles debut.

  • Deal to L.A. in place

    The Rams finalized their acquisition of Miller (ankle) from the Broncos on Monday, picking up $9 million of the edge rusher's remaining salary for 2021 while also sending 2022 second- and third-round picks to Denver, Jeff Legwold and Lindsey Thiry of ESPN.com report.

    Analysis: Miller will need to pass a physical before either side announces the trade, but that's apparently not a major concern, even though his sprained left ankle kept him from playing in Denver's win over Washington on Sunday. Assuming he returns to full health in the near future, Miller, who confirmed his trade to Los Angeles in a post on his personal Instagram account, should provide the Rams with another top-flight pass-rushing talent to complement standout defensive tackle Aaron Donald.

  • Trade to Rams being finalized

    The Broncos will reportedly trade Miller (ankle) to the Rams in exchange for a pair of 2022 draft picks, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: No deal has been finalized yet, but Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports that the Broncos would receive second- and third-round draft picks in exchange for the eight-time Pro Bowler. Per Schefter, Miller is saying his goodbyes to teammates Monday morning, which would seem to indicate that a deal is nearly finalized. He is thus set to join forces with the likes of Aaron Donald and Jalen Ramsey, further bolstering the Rams' star-studded defense.

  • Won't play Sunday

    Miller (ankle) is listed as inactive for Sunday's game against the Football Team.

    Analysis: Miller will miss his first game this season. After Miller suffered the injury in Week 7, Jonathon Cooper and Curtis Robinson saw the biggest increases in playing time and likely will fill in again.

  • Looks like game-time call

    Miller (ankle), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Washington, may be evaluated in a pregame workout before the Broncos determine his status, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: At this stage, Miller looks to be trending toward missing his first game of the season, as he wasn't able to practice in any fashion Wednesday through Friday after spraining his left ankle in the Broncos' Week 7 loss to the Browns. If Miller is sidelined an already-depleted Denver linebacking corps would be even more shorthanded.

  • Considered questionable

    Miller (ankle) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against Washington, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.

    Analysis: Miller was a non-participant at practice all week, so his questionable designation seems a little optimistic. Still, the Broncos may just be erring on the side of caution with the veteran linebacker. Jonathan Cooper would likely be in line for a larger role at linebacker should he be unable to go.

  • Still out for Thursday's practice

    Miller (ankle) was absent again from practice Thursday, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' team site reports.

    Analysis: Even though he may not practice all week, Miller feels "really good" about his chances to play Week 8 against Washington if his ankle continues to heal at its current rate. However, if Miller can't go Sunday, Jonathan Cooper would step into a larger role at linebacker.

  • Still not practicing Wednesday

    Miller (ankle) didn't practice Wednesday, George Stoia III of The Denver Gazette reports.

    Analysis: Coach Vic Fangio said Wednesday that Miller is considered questionable heading into the Broncos' Week 8 matchup with Washington. Jonathan Cooper played a season-high 37 snaps after the All-Pro pass rusher left Week 7's loss to the Browns early due to the ankle injury, so he could possibly draw the start Sunday if Miller is inactive.

  • Considered day-to-day

    Miller (ankle) didn't practice Tuesday and is considered day-to-day, James Palmer of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Miller left Thursday's loss to the Browns early due to an ankle injury and may be sidelined for Week 8. His status will likely be monitored throughout the week, but it may come down to a game-time decision Sunday. Jonathan Cooper played a season-high 37 snaps during the Broncos' Week 7 loss, so he would likely draw the start if Miller is inactive against Washington.

  • Status murky

    Miller (ankle) could miss some time after exiting early during Thursday's loss to the Browns, Ben Swanson of the Broncos' official website reports.

    Analysis: Miller is nursing an ankle sprain. The team is currently unsure of the severity but expects to know more by early next week. Jonathan Cooper would be the likely candidate to fill in should the veteran linebacker have to miss time.

  • No structural damage

    Miller didn't suffer any structural damage to his ankle in Thursday's 17-14 loss to the Browns, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Miller was ruled out from the game after suffering an ankle injury late in the first half. He underwent X-rays in the locker room, which came back clean and revealed that he suffered no structural damage. The Broncos will have 10 days until their Week 8 matchup against Washington, so Miller may have the chance to return without any additional missed time.

  • Ruled out from return

    Miller (ankle) will not return to Thursday's game against the Browns.

    Analysis: Miller was hobbled late in the first half and originally deemed questionable to return. However, he'll now be added to a growing list of key defensive players sidelined for the Broncos. Miller logged two tackles prior to his exit.

  • Injures ankle

    Miller is questionable to return to Thursday's game against the Browns with an ankle injury.

    Analysis: Miller was injured late in the first half but walked off the field under his own power. However, he underwent further examination on the sideline and went into the locker room prior to the rest of the team. Prior to his exit, Miller recorded two tackles.

  • Extends sack streak to four games

    Miller recorded five total tackles, including a half a sack in Sunday's 23-7 loss to the Ravens.

    Analysis: Miller has now gotten to the quarterback in all four games to start the 2021 campaign. With 4.5 sacks to start the year, it is certainly plausible to think that veteran can reach double-digit sacks this season. Miller has a decent chance to add to his total in Week 5 when the Broncos visit the Steelers; through four weeks, Pittsburgh has allowed Ben Roethlisberger to be sacked 10 times.

  • Piling up sacks

    Miller posted three tackles (one solo) and a sack in Sunday's 26-0 win over the Jets.

    Analysis: Miller is stepping up with Bradley Chubb (ankle) out of the lineup, as he now has a sack in every game and four total through three weeks. The 2011 first-round pick has little fantasy utility unless he gets to the quarterback, as he produced just 46 tackles last year, but double-digit sacks are certainly in the conversation again.

  • Records one sack

    Miller recorded two tackles, including one sack, during Sunday's 23-13 win over the Jaguars.

    Analysis: For the second straight week, Miller was the only Broncos defender to record a sack. The veteran linebacker has not done much in the way of tackles so far this season, but his three total sacks through two weeks have him tied for third in the league in that category. Miller is no stranger to disrupting things for opposing quarterbacks, so it is not surprising to see him pick up where he left off before his injury last season. The 6-foot-3, 250-pounder will have a great opportunity to add to his…read more

  • Records two sacks in win

    Miller recorded three tackles, including two sacks, during Sunday's 27-13 victory over the Giants.

    Analysis: After missing the entire 2020 campaign, Miller returned to form as the only Broncos defender to sack Daniel Jones on Sunday. If this performance is any indication, the 32-year-old linebacker should be poised for a solid comeback season. Miller and the formidable Denver defense get a favorable matchup in Week 2 when the Broncos visit the Jaguars with rookie quarterback Trevor Lawrence at the helm.

    Miller is expected to suit up for Saturday's game against the Rams, Nick Kosmider of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Miller was held out of Denver's Week 2 preseason win over the Seahawks, but Coach Vic Fangio told reporters that the veteran will play against the Rams on Aug. 28. The 6-foot-3, 250-pounder has come a long way in his recovery from a surgery to repair a dislocated perineal tendon that caused him to miss the entire 2020 campaign. Miller will rejoin a defense that could prove to be quite formidable as the season progresses, and the 32-year-old linebacker will look return to his former level of…read more

  • Unlikely to play Saturday

    Miller is unlikely to play in Saturday's preseason game against the Seahawks, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.

    Analysis: Miller is nearly fully recovered after he missed the entire 2020 campaign due to a dislocated perineal tendon that required surgery. The 2011 first-rounder didn't appear in the team's preseason opener against the Vikings, and he'll delay his return to game action until the team's exhibition game against the Rams on Aug. 28. Miller is still on track in his recovery, but he sustained last year's injury during practice on turf and doesn't want to play on that surface at Lumen Field during his…read more

    Miller (ankle) said he's not 100 percent healthy, but he is close, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.

    Analysis: Miller specifically put his recovery number at 97.5 percent, which is great news for Denver's defense ahead of the 2021 season. The 33-year-old linebacker missed all of last season with a dislocated peroneal tendon and underwent surgery for the issue last September. Miller will look to get back to his former level of dominance, but his chance of returning to live-game action may be on hold for the moment.

  • Looks healthy at OTAs

    Miller (ankle) looked healthy at Monday's practice and handled a full assortment of on-field cuts and jukes, Sean Keeler of The Denver Post reports.

    Analysis: Miller, who turned 33 in March, didn't suit up for a single game last season as the result of a dislocated peroneal tendon. The surgery he underwent Sept. 11 carried a recovery timeline of 5-to-6 months, and his workload at OTAs is an indication that he's returned to full health without any setbacks. Miller is set to account for $23.2 million of the Broncos' cap space during the 2021 campaign, after which he'll become a free agent.

  • Gets contract guarantee

    The Broncos are exercising a $7 million guarantee on Miller's (ankle) $18 million salary for 2021, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.

    Analysis: There was talk of negotiating a lower salary for the final year of Miller's contract, but the Broncos apparently are willing to keep his deal in place now that the pass rusher isn't facing legal charges from a recent investigation by the Parker (Col.) Police Department. Miller should be ready for training camp, considering his dislocated peroneal tendon came with a recovery timeline of 5-to-6 months. He had surgery Sept. 11 and began running in early December.

    Miller (ankle) will have no charges filed against him stemming from an investigation by the Parker (Col.) Police Department, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Miller had been subject to an investigation for unspecified allegations by the Parker Police Department since mid-January, but the District Attorney's office from 18th Judicial District has now decided not to file any charges. Broncos general manager George Paton recently announced that he wants to bring Miller back for 2021, per Aric DiLalla of the team's official site, and the resolution of the veteran linebacker's legal situation could smooth out negotiations.

  • In GM's 2021 plans

    Broncos general manager George Paton said of Miller (ankle) on Thursday, "We want to bring Von back," Aric DiLalla of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: Miller was under investigation from the Parker (Colo.) Police Department during January and February, but allegations against the 31-year-old remain unspecified and no charges have been filed. While Paton shows deference to the ongoing legal proceedings by labeling the matter a "serious situation," he's simultaneously considering avenues that would keep the Super Bowl 50 MVP in the Mile High City. Miller's anticipated 2021 cap hit of $22.2 million is disproportionate for a player who missed all…read more

    The Douglas County (Colo.) District Attorney's Office announced Tuesday it has not yet made a decision on whether to charge Miller, who was under investigation from the Parker Police Department for unspecified allegations, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.

    Analysis: Parker Police confirmed Jan 15. that Miller was the subject of an investigation, though it declined to reveal the nature of the case. The investigation has since been completed, and the police department submitted its results to the DA's office for review. The Broncos, who said in January they wouldn't comment further on Miller's legal situation until more information became available, will have to decide by March 17 whether to retain the linebacker in 2021.

  • Contract situation undetermined

    The Broncos are still deciding whether to exercise Miller's (ankle) $17.5 million option for 2021, Troy Renck of Denver 7 News reports.

    Analysis: While Dan Graziano of ESPN.com considers it "likely" the Broncos elect to decline Miller's 2021 option, the possibility remains that the two sides work out a revised deal. The three-time All-Pro is due a $7 million bonus in mid-March, meaning there will be a discussion between Miller and the front office before that point. Miller is coming off a lost 2020 campaign, having failed to make a single appearance after suffering a dislocated peroneal tendon in his ankle during an early-September…read more

  • Starts running

    Coach Vic Fangio said Monday that Miller (ankle) started running last week but isn't expected to play in Sunday's game against the Bills, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.

    Analysis: A couple of weeks back, Fangio suggested that Miller's potential return is a "moot point." There remains a slim chance that he could still return this season, especially with the playoffs out of reach. It's nevertheless an encouraging sign that Miller is able to run just three months after suffering a dislocated peroneal tendon in his ankle, an injury which typically takes a 5-to-6 month recovery. The 31-year-old should be at 100 percent for the 2021 campaign.

  • Return unlikely this season

    Miller (ankle) still hasn't been cleared to practice and coach Vic Fangio referred to his status as "a moot point at this point" Wednesday, Kyle Newman of the Denver Post reports.

    Analysis: With the playoffs almost certainly out of reach, there's little reason for the 4-7 Broncos to rush Miller back this season, and Fangio seems to be hinting that the team won't do so. Miller will set his sights on recovering fully so he can hit the ground running for the 2021 season.

  • Making progress in recovery

    Coach Vic Fangio said Monday that Miller (ankle) is "progressing well" but won't practice this week, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.

    Analysis: The 31-year-old is still recovering from September surgery that repaired a dislocated peroneal tendon, a procedure that typically requires a 5-to-6 month recovery. Fangio explained further that it's still too early to tell whether the star linebacker will return this season. If the Broncos are out of playoff contention, however, it seems unlikely that they'll rush Miller back.

  • Sheds walking boot

    Miller (ankle) was spotted without a walking boot on his left foot Thursday, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.

    Analysis: Miller has taken on some leadership and coaching duties while on injured reserve, but he still hasn't been cleared to actually resume handling practice reps. Still, it's encouraging to see him consistently getting involved in some capacity. While it's also good news that the veteran pass rusher has managed to discard his walking boot, he still appears to be targeting a mid-December return.

  • Sports boot at practice

    Miller (ankle) was spotted coaching his fellow outside linebackers while wearing a walking boot in practice Wednesday, Troy Renck of ABC Denver7 reports.

    Analysis: It's nice to see Miller taking on a leadership role and contributing however he can while recovering from his ankle injury, but his walking boot suggests he's still nowhere near returning to game action. Miller has been targeting a mid-December return, so it will likely take him a few more weeks to shed the boot.

  • Return uncertain for 2020

    Coach Vic Fangio said Miller (ankle) is "right where he should be" in his recovery from surgery on his dislocated peroneal tendon but added that it's too early to tell whether Miller will be able to play this year, Zac Stevens of DNVR Sports reports.

    Analysis: Miller has been targeting a mid-December return, but the surgery he underwent on Sept. 11 typically requires a four- to six-month recovery process. While the highly competitive pass rusher will surely do everything in his power to come back late in the season if the Broncos are making a playoff push, such a scenario seems unlikely given the team's 1-3 record at this point. If Denver has been eliminated from playoff contention by the time Miller's nearing a return, the team will likely play it…read more

  • Targeting mid-December return

    Miller (ankle) is working out daily under the Broncos' supervision and is hopeful to return from injured reserve in mid-December if Denver remains in playoff contention, Jason La Canfora of CBS Sports reports.

    Analysis: The Pro Bowl linebacker was projected to miss four to six months after he underwent surgery Sept. 11 to address a dislocated peroneal tendon, an injury he suffered in a workout three days earlier. Though he remains in the early phases of his rehab process, Miller is apparently optimistic that he can cut nearly a full month off that projected recovery timeline to suit up for Denver before the regular season wraps up. He's still expected to remain confined to a walking boot for seven more weeks…read more

  • Lands on IR

    The Broncos will place Miller (ankle) on injured reserve Tuesday, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.

    Analysis: Miller's move to IR is merely a formality, as the edge rusher is expected to miss most, if not all, of the 2020 season after undergoing surgery last week to address a dislocated peroneal tendon. While Miller's procedure typically carries a recovery timeline of 5-to-6 months, he plans to attack his rehab aggressively with the hope of getting back on the field at the tail end of the regular season or during the playoffs, should the Broncos qualify.

    Miller (ankle) is scheduled to undergo surgery Thursday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Miller, who suffered a dislocated peroneal tendon during practice earlier this week, will also shift to injured reserve in the near future, per Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com. Though the star pass rusher will technically be eligible to return from IR after a minimum of three weeks, his ankle procedure carries a recovery timetable of several months. The 31-year-old could still have a chance for a late-season return, depending on how quickly his rehab progresses.

    Miller (ankle) was diagnosed Wednesday with a dislocated peroneal tendon, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Rapoport notes that Miller's likeliest option will be to undergo surgery, which would give him a recovery timetable between five and six months, though a three-month recovery could be possible in an "absolute best-case scenario." While it's encouraging for Miller that the window on a late-season return hasn't completely closed, season-ending surgery is still the most likely outcome after the linebacker injured the ankle in Tuesday's practice. In any case, losing Miller for any amount of time…read more

  • Surgery to be ordered up

    Miller is slated to undergo surgery after suffering a torn tendon in his ankle at Tuesday's practice, Troy Renck of Denver 7 News reports.

    Analysis: Due to blizzard conditions in the Denver metro area, the Broncos held practice indoors, a session that ended with Miller sustaining the freak injury. Following an MRI, we're starting to get a clearer picture of the issue, but he'll visit Dr. Robert Anderson in Green Bay on Thursday to get a second opinion, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. The meeting very well may confirm what has been suspected: Miller's 2020 season is over.

  • May have season-ending injury

    Miller injured an ankle tendon during Tuesday's practice and likely will require season-ending surgery, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Instead of the customary outdoor session, the Broncos held practice indoors Tuesday due to an ongoing blizzard. According to Schefter, the team was only in shells, but still the worst happened as Miller suffered the injury in the final moments. If Miller's season is over before it can start, Denver will be left with a pass-rush group of Bradley Chubb (knee) and not much else, making it a prime candidate to bring in reinforcements.

    Analysis: There's already been much speculation regarding the injury, including it impacted Miller's Achilles (per Garafolo) or ankle (per Adam Schefter of ESPN), and that it likely is season ending (per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network). Ultimately, the diagnosis and eventually the prognosis will be determined by the results of an MRI and other testing.

Miller and Bradley Chubb (knee) are both expected to be ready for Week 1 and form one of the league's best pass-rushing tandems. They combined for 26.5 sacks in 2018 when they both played 16 games.

    Analysis: Miller first announced his case of COVID-19 on April 16, but it now looks as though the star pass rusher has recovered and returned to health.

    General manager John Elway said Monday that the Broncos will pick up Miller's $18 million contract option for 2020, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.

    Analysis: Miller's 2020 option includes $6 million guaranteed. Next season, the three-time All-Pro will enter the fifth year of the six-year, $114.5 million contract extension he signed in 2016. Miller appeared in 15 contests in 2019 while battling a lingering knee injury for much of the year, compiling 46 tackles (33 solo), a team-leading eight sacks and two defended passes. The star pass rusher will benefit from the return of fellow outside linebacker Bradley Chubb (knee) come 2020.

    Analysis: Miller played through the MCL sprain Week 14 and was limited to 59 percent of defensive snaps, but he appears to be much healthier entering Week 15. The 30-year-old may not end up seeing his usual full workload, but he seems likely to see the field more than last week.

    Analysis: Miller played through his knee injury during Week 14's win over the Texans, in which he notched three tackles (one solo) despite playing a season-low 59 percent of snaps on defense. The veteran pass rusher also said "I shouldn't have any problems playing on Sunday" in Kansas City. While it's certainly good news that any uncertainty surrounding the All-Pro's availability has dissipated, it remains to be seen whether he'll be limited at all versus the Chiefs.

    Analysis: Miller was initially listed as questionable for Week 14 and considered a game-time call, so it appears as though his knee injury held up well during pregame workouts.

His workout pregame will have a strong say as to whether the All-Pro pass rusher can suit up.

    Analysis: Miller continues to find a way to reach opposing quarterbacks, as he brought his season sack total to six with Sunday's takedown of Josh Allen. He'll now be tasked with bringing down Philip Rivers, which he failed to do in their first meeting of the season back in October.

    Miller recorded three solo tackles and a sack in Sunday's 27-23 loss to the Vikings.

    Analysis: Miller's stats have disappointed this season following a 14.5-sack 2018 campaign, as he's registered just five sacks through 10 contests this year. However, he's still just as disruptive with 22 quarterback pressures, putting him on pace to match last year's 35 over 16 games. That doesn't pay off for IDP purposes, but the veteran linebacker's real-life value is still there.
