Vonnie B'VSean Miller[1] (born March 26, 1989) is an American professionalfootballlinebacker for theWashington Commanders of theNational Football League (NFL). Miller playedcollege football for theTexas A&M Aggies, where he earned consensusAll-American honors and the 2010Butkus Award. He was selected by theDenver Broncos with thesecond overall pick in the2011 NFL draft.
Miller has been a seven-timeAll-Pro selection and eight-timePro Bowl selection during his career. As of 2024, he has the most career sacks of any active player and the most career sacks in Broncos history with 110.5.[2] At the conclusion of the2015 NFL season, Miller was namedSuper Bowl MVP inSuper Bowl 50. In 2021, Miller was traded to theLos Angeles Rams and was a member of the team that wonSuper Bowl LVI. Miller later played with theBuffalo Bills from 2022 to 2024.
Miller was born on March 26, 1989, inDeSoto, Texas, a suburb ofDallas.[3] He attendedDeSoto High School, where he played for the DeSoto Eagleshigh school football team and ran track. In his junior year, he recorded 37 tackles, 14 tackles for loss, 7 sacks, and 12 quarterback hurries. As a senior, he was named the District 8-5A Defensive MVP after making 76 tackles, 14 tackles for loss, and 6 sacks.[4] He played with future Aggie teammateCyrus Gray.[5]
Intrack and field, Miller competed in events such as the110 m hurdles (personal record (PR) of 14.38 s),triple jump (PR of 12.65 m), andjavelin throw (PR of 37.24 m).[6] Considered a four-star recruit byRivals.com, Miller was listed as the number-15 weakside defensive end in the nation in 2007.[7] He chose Texas A&M over offers fromFlorida,LSU,Oklahoma, andTexas Tech.[8]
Miller attendedTexas A&M University, where he played for theTexas A&M Aggies football team from 2007 to 2010. As a freshman atdefensive end in 2007, he was named Freshman All-Big 12 byThe Sporting News after posting 22 tackles, including 10 solo stops. He recorded two sacks, four tackles for loss, and a forced fumble.[9] He played in a4–2–5 defense. He weighed 220 pounds during his freshman year.
In spring 2008, newly hired head coachMike Sherman was discouraged by Miller's habits of skipping class and failing to produce during practice. Sherman decided to suspend Miller for that spring. Disappointed, Miller considered transferring, but upon his father's insistence, stayed. Miller then adopted a more serious attitude.[10]
As a sophomore in 2008, Miller played atweakside linebacker underJoe Kines's4–3 defense. He saw action in all 12 games, making 44 tackles, including 25 solo stops, and leading the team with 3.5 sacks. He made 7.5 tackles for loss, forced two fumbles, and recovered two more. His role was more confined to pass coverage, as opposed to rushing the quarterback, thus he was not able to showcase his pass-rushing abilities. In his final seven Big 12 games, he compiled just eight tackles.[11][12]
As a junior in 2009, Miller adopted the role of the jack position, a defensive end/linebacker hybrid, which allowed him to use his pass-rushing abilities. He enjoyed a breakout season for the Aggies, leading the nation in sacks with 17 and ranking fourth in the nation with 21 tackles for loss.[13] For his efforts, Von Miller was named first-team All Big-12 atdefensive end and was named a first-team All-American bySporting News andSports Illustrated.[14][15] He became the first Aggie to be named a first team All-American sinceJason Webster in 1999.[16] Then-Aggies defensive coordinatorJoe Kines compared Miller to the lateDerrick Thomas.[17][18] Miller then studied and watched film of Thomas to familiarize himself with his game.
As a senior in 2010, Miller switched to playing as a3–4 outside linebacker underTim DeRuyter's defense. Early in the season, Miller suffered a high ankle sprain that held him back for the first six games.[13] He posted 10.5 sacks and 17.5 tackles for loss.[19][20] Again he made first-team All-Big 12 honors[21] and won theButkus Award as the nation's top linebacker.[22] He was also named a consensus first-team All-American.[23] He received first-team All-American honors fromWalter Camp,Scout.com,Pro Football Weekly,[24]ESPN.com[25] and theAssociated Press.[26] Miller graduated with a degree in poultry science and raises chickens in his spare time.[27]

Miller was projected to be a second-round pick in the2010 NFL draft had he passed on his senior season.[28] He entered the2011 NFL draft regarded as one of the best 3–4 outside linebackers available by NFL draft experts and scouts and was projected to be a top five draft pick.[29][30][31] At the 2011Senior Bowl, Miller was the Defensive MVP.[32] Among linebackers at the 2011 NFL Combine, Miller ranked second in the 40-yard dash, third in the vertical jump, first in the broad jump, third in the 20-yard shuttle, tied for first in the three-cone drill, and first in the 60-yard shuttle. His 11.15-second 60-yard shuttle broke the combine linebacker record. At the Texas A&M Pro Day in March 2011, Miller ran a 4.49-second 40-yard dash.[33]

In March 2011, Miller was selected to represent top-flight rookies in the NFL Labor Union talks.[35] He was persuaded by former NFL running backLaDainian Tomlinson to join the lawsuit.[10] During the Texas A&M Pro Day, one scout compared him to Hall of FamerDerrick Thomas, while Bengals defensive coordinatorMike Zimmer compared him to Cardinals linebackerJoey Porter.[36]NFL Network AnalystMike Mayock, who rated Miller as the second-best player in the draft, stated that Miller reminded him of a smaller version ofDeMarcus Ware.[37] Miller's then-personal trainer, Dan Brandenburg, who also worked with first-round picksClay Matthews III andSean Weatherspoon, stated Miller is the best athlete of all three.[10]
Miller was selected by theDenver Broncos second overall in the 2011 NFL draft.[38] He was the highest-selected linebacker sinceLaVar Arrington went number two to theWashington Redskins in2000. He also became the Aggies' highest draft pick sinceQuentin Coryatt, who was selected second overall in1992.[39] The selection of Miller surprised certain experts. Denver was switching from a3–4 defense to a4–3, a defense which seemed counterintuitive to Miller's strengths. Former Broncos quarterbackJohn Elway, who is also the executive vice president of the franchise, said Miller is "a type of guy that comes around every 10 years".[40] On July 28, 2011, Miller signed his rookie contract. He wore number 58 in honor ofPro Football Hall of Fame linebacker Derrick Thomas.[41]
On September 12, 2011, in his first career play from scrimmage, Miller forced a fumble against theOakland Raiders.[42] On September 18, 2011, he had his first sack onAndy Dalton when the Broncos played theCincinnati Bengals.[43]
Miller was named the AFC Defensive Player of the Week for his Week 11 performance against theNew York Jets.[44] The Broncos made the playoffs and faced off against thePittsburgh Steelers in theWild Card Round. In his playoff debut, Miller had three solo tackles and one quarterback hit in the 29–23 overtime victory.[45] In theDivisional Round against theNew England Patriots, he had two quarterback hits in the 45–10 loss.[46]
Miller was selected to the2012 Pro Bowl[47] and was namedAP Defensive Rookie of the Year.[48] Overall, in 907 snaps, he recorded 11.5 sacks, 19 quarterback hits and 29 quarterback hurries.[49] He was fined three times during the season.[50] He was ranked 52nd by his fellow players on theNFL Top 100 Players of 2012.[51]
Miller got off to a quick start in his second season, registering 10 sacks in nine games. In this period, he recorded 30 quarterback hurries, more than he had during his entire 2011 campaign. Thanks to this tremendous start, he was considered an MVP candidate. On November 16, he was fined $21,000 for a hit onCarolina Panthers quarterbackCam Newton in week 10.[52] He received his second career AFC Defensive Player of the Week honor after recording three sacks and two forced fumbles against theSan Diego Chargers the following week.[53] For his efforts during November, he was awarded AFC Defensive Player of the Month. On December 26, 2012, he was announced the starting outside linebacker in the AFC division for the2013 Pro Bowl.[54] Miller finished the season third in sacks with18+1⁄2, breaking a Denver Broncos record of 17 previously held byElvis Dumervil. He also capped off the 2012 season finishing second in voting for Defensive Player of the Year and being named first-team All-Pro.[55] In theDivisional Round of the playoffs, Miller had nine total tackles and two quarterback hits in the 38–35 2OT loss to theBaltimore Ravens.[56]
In 2012, Miller teamed up withUbisoft, makers of the video gameThe Hip Hop Dance Experience, to create his own sack celebration dance called the "DeSoto Shuffle" that was inspired by the video game. Each time he performed the dance during a game, Ubisoft made a charitable donation to Von's Vision, a foundation devoted to providing eye care and glasses to underprivileged youth.[57] He was ranked 9th by his fellow players on theNFL Top 100 Players of 2013.[58]
In July 2013, ESPN reported that Miller had been suspended four games for violating league policy, pending appeal. Hetweeted that he did "nothing wrong". In August 2013, he lost the appeal and was suspended for six games. The six-game suspension arose after the NFL learned that he attempted to cheat a drug test. He became eligible to play on October 20, 2013, when the Broncos played theIndianapolis Colts.[59][60] On November 24, in a loss to the Patriots, he recovered aStevan Ridley fumble and took it 60 yards for a touchdown.[61] It was the second touchdown of his career. He did fairly well upon his return, but his season was ended prematurely when he suffered a tornanterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in his right knee on December 22, 2013, during a win on the road at theHouston Texans.[62]
Without Miller, the Broncos reachedSuper Bowl XLVIII, but lost 43–8 to theSeattle Seahawks.[63] He was ranked 76th by his fellow players on theNFL Top 100 Players of 2014.[64]
After recovering from his ACL injury, Miller returned for his fourth season with the Broncos.[65] Miller earned AFC Defensive Player of the Month for October.[66] He recorded 14 sacks, 59 tackles, and a forced fumble.[67] In theDivisional Round of the playoffs against the Colts, he had six total tackles and one quarterback hit in the 24–13 loss.[68] He earned a Pro Bowl nomination for his 2014 season.[69] He was ranked 33rd by his fellow players on theNFL Top 100 Players of 2015.[70]

The only ones to get there faster than him wereReggie White (40 games) andDerrick Thomas (54).[71] Overall, in the 2015 season, Miller finished with 11 sacks, 35 total tackles, 32 quarterback hits, one pass defended, and four forced fumbles.[72]
In theDivisional Round against the Steelers, he had two total tackles in the 23–16 victory.[73] During theAFC Championship against the Patriots, Miller sackedTom Brady2+1⁄2 times, breaking a Broncos single-game playoff record and also had an interception in the second quarter of the game.[74]
InSuper Bowl 50, facing the Panthers, who held the top-ranked offense, the Broncos won 24–10. In the first quarter, on a 3rd-and-10 from the 15-yard line, Miller knocked the ball out of Panthers quarterbackCam Newton's hands while sacking him, and defensive endMalik Jackson recovered it in the end zone for a Broncos touchdown, giving the team a 10–0 lead. This was the first fumble return touchdown in a Super Bowl sinceSuper Bowl XXVIII.[75] With 4:51 left in regulation and the Broncos leading 16–10, Miller forced a second fumble from Newton to end the Panthers' potential game-winning drive, and the Broncos offense afterwards scored a touchdown to seal the victory. Miller recorded six tackles, a pass defended,2+1⁄2 sacks, two forced fumbles, and two quarterback hurries, and was namedSuper Bowl MVP for his performance.[76] His performance in Super Bowl 50 is widely regarded as one of the greatest individual defensive performances in Super Bowl history.[77][78][79]
Miller was named to his fourth Pro Bowl, earned his second first-team All-Pro, and was ranked 15th by his fellow players on theNFL Top 100 Players of 2016.[80][81][82]

On December 19, 2017, Miller was named to his sixth Pro Bowl.[92] Miller was named the2018 Pro Bowl defensive MVP.[93] In the 2017 season, he recorded his fourth consecutive season with at least 10 sacks.[94] He was ranked ninth by his fellow players on theNFL Top 100 Players of 2018.[95]
In the Broncos' 2018 season opener against the Seahawks, Miller recorded three sacks and seven total tackles in the 27–24 victory.[96] In week 11, Miller interceptedPhilip Rivers and returned it 42 yards to set up a touchdown, which helped ignite a 23–22 comeback win over theLos Angeles Chargers, earning him AFC Defensive Player of the Week.[97]

In an emotional interview following his trade, Miller held back tears, saying, "I love Broncos Country. When I said 'Broncos for life,' I meant that. It was an honor and a privilege to play here."[114] Miller chose to wear number 40 for the Rams, his number at Texas A&M, with the familial blessing of Rams legendElroy Hirsch, since his number 58 was taken byJustin Hollins.[115]
