Von Miller plans on playing in 2025
The Bills cut edge rusher Von Miller on March 9, and he has remained a free agent since.
Miller, though, said he plans to play in 2025.
He doesn't yet know where that will be, but Miller knows it won't be back in Denver.
'I haven't heard anything,' Miller said when asked if the Broncos have reached out, via video from Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post. 'But, I mean, really, if you look at it, this year, it really doesn't make sense. They've got two really, really good rushers that are best in the league [caliber]. With Jonathon Cooper and Nik Bonitto, they are incredible rushers -- and the guys underneath them, they come in and produce sacks, too. And they play special teams.
'I'm not playing special teams. That decision kind of makes itself, I think at 36 years old, I can say that I probably won't be doing that. But yeah, this year, probably not [a reunion with the Broncos], but the year after that -- next year -- we'll see what happens.'
The Bills saved $8.4 million in salary cap space by cutting Miller, who signed a six-year, $120 million deal before the 2022 season. In three seasons, Miller played 36 of a possible 50 games and totaled 14 sacks, 41 tackles and 23 quarterback hits.
Miller is an eight-time Pro Bowler and a two-time Super Bowl champion.

Eagles DC Delivers Confident Message After Critical Losses
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. For the Philadelphia Eagles, winning the trenches has been a primary reason behind their success in the past. That was especially true during the team's most recent run, which was capped off with a Super Bowl victory. The Eagles' offensive line won't have a ton of turnover heading into the 2025 NFL season. The same can't be said for the defensive side. Oftentimes, winning comes at a great cost. The Eagles witnessed their pass rush feast on Patrick Mahomes in the Super Bowl just months ago, but they also witnessed teams line up to pay some of the free agents, causing some Philadelphia stars to walk out the door. A little worry would only make the Eagles human. The team's defensive coordinator, Vic Fangio, recently fielded questions about the state of his defensive line. The Eagles prepared for the cost of success, and Fangio remains confident in his team's ability to stay strong after some key losses in free agency. "I feel good about Nolan [Smith]. "I think we'll feel good about Jalyx [Hunt] now that he's gonna get a lot of reps and develop," Fangio told reporters, according to Pro Football Talk. "He played good for us down the stretch last year, and played a lot, as you saw, so I feel good about those two guys, and I think they'll continue to improve." Brandon Graham #55 and Josh Sweat #94 of the Philadelphia Eagles react against the Dallas Cowboys at Lincoln Financial Field on November 5, 2023 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Brandon Graham #55 and Josh Sweat #94 of the Philadelphia Eagles react against the Dallas Cowboys at Lincoln Financial Field on November 5, 2023 in Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaBeyond the obvious replacements, the Eagles are encouraged by the depth. "We've got [Josh] Uche, we've got Azeez [Ojulari], we've got three other guys there. I think we'll be fine." Josh Sweat, a homegrown defensive lineman for the Eagles, took his talents to the Arizona Cardinals. He leaves the Eagles with 104 regular-season games under his belt. He collected 43 sacks over that time, including nearly three in this past postseason. The 2021 third-rounder, Milton Williams, is another player who cashed out this offseason. Since his rookie season, Williams has played in 67 games, with 19 starts. He collected 132 tackles (25 for a loss), 11.5 sacks, and nearly 30 hits on opposing QBs. Williams leaves the Eagles for a run with the New England Patriots. Beyond the younger players who picked up a big payday, the Eagles also lost their seasoned veteran, Brandon Graham, to retirement. Eventually, Graham's age caught up to him throughout the 2024 NFL season, but without injuries he was still quite productive. The Eagles will face a ton of tests in 2025, and how they perform up front on defense will be the biggest question heading into the new year. It's easy to assume that all will be right for Fangio's unit, but the Eagles don't see a reason to be overly concerned at this time.

Reece Walsh in State of Origin twist as Slater makes decision on Daly Cherry-Evans
Billy Slater is reportedly leaning towards axing Daly Cherry-Evans as Queensland halfback and captain for State of Origin 2, while Reece Walsh made a stunning late push to unseat Kalyn Ponga as fullback. However there were bizarre scenes involving Walsh when the fullback appeared to re-injure his knee in the Broncos' 44-14 win over the Titans on Saturday night. Walsh returned after a six-week absence for the clash at Suncorp Stadium, despite whispers he wasn't quite ready. And the gamble appeared to backfire on coach Michael Maguire when Walsh went down in agony with 10 minutes remaining. The fullback caught a high ball near his line, before pivoting on his troublesome knee and hitting the deck with no-one around him. Walsh grimaced in pain and was hobbling around, but pushed the trainer away who was trying to help him. It looked for sure as though Walsh had re-injured his right knee, ruining any faint hope he had of a State of Origin recall. But he pushed through the pain, and bizarrely scored two tries in the next five minutes. First he burned Chris Randall with a scintillating solo try from a scrum, stepping off his left leg and charging over. He then backed up on the inside after a break from Kotoni Staggs and managed to sprint to the line for the Broncos' eighth try. He didn't appear to be running at full speed, and it remains to be seen whether he's done more damage to his right knee. Another stint on the sidelines would be a hammer blow for the Broncos, and questions will be asked if he made his return too early. Eyebrows were also raised that he was allowed to stay on the field after appearing to aggravate his knee, given the Broncos had already sealed the victory. It was the same situation when he played out the match after suffering the injury the first time in Round 7. His two-try performance would have given Slater plenty to ponder given Ponga hasn't been in the greatest of form. Ponga has probably done enough to retain his spot, and the sight of Walsh hobbling around would have worried Slater no doubt. Walsh no need to be brave. If your struggling or the knee isn't right than get off the field #nrlBroncosTitans — gemma rogers (@gemma92rogers) June 7, 2025 How is Walsh running on that terribly injured knee?#dramaqueen — MickyG (@micklegend) June 7, 2025 8 mins to go, up 32-8, Walsh injures the same knee he previously injured .. & wants to stay on the field 🤦🏼♂️ if I'm coach I'm on the field & drag the muppet off the field, it's a long season 🤷♂️@brisbanebroncos #NRLBroncosTitans — MushroomFunGuy🍄 (@Bemboka23) June 7, 2025 As for Cherry-Evans, reports have emerged that Slater is on the cusp of axing his captain for Game 2. The veteran halfback was poor in the second half against Newcastle on Thursday night, while Tom Dearden has been in much better form. is reporting that Slater is leaning towards picking Dearden at halfback to partner Cameron Munster in Origin 2, and leaving Cherry-Evans out of his 17 altogether. The team will be announced officially on Monday evening, but it appears as though DCE's Origin career is over. RELATED: 'Shouldn't be involved': Wayne Bennett hit with ban by NRL Mary Fowler dream could be ruined amid Nathan Cleary news If he's left out of the 17 it will see Kurt Mann win a spot on the bench, and he might even start at hooker given Slater's preference to have Harry Grant come off the interchange. The Maroons are 0-4 in games that Grant has started, and he's been much more effective when he's kept out of the rough and tumble of the first 10 minutes.
