Von Miller is still clearly in shock.
The Denver Broncos traded the eight-time Pro Bowl and three-time All-Pro linebacker to the Los Angeles Rams on Monday for 2022 and 2023 second-round draft picks.
Soon after the trade, reporters got his reaction to it in real time, and he was still very clearly emotional about it.
While having him on the Rams is surely going to make the Los Angeles defense even better, he’s not exactly the same linebacker he once was due to injuries. Miller contracted the coronavirus and suffered a season-ending injury during training camp in 2020. He also suffered a sprained ankle in Week 7 this season and didn’t play Sunday against the Washington Football Team.
Miller is making $17.5 million this season and is set to become an unrestricted free agent in 2022.
In 2021, Miller has appeared in eight games for the Broncos and recorded 19 tackles, seven tackles for loss and 4.5 sacks.
