After winning Super Bowl LVI with the Los Angeles Rams, outside linebacker Von Miller is now scheduled to become a free agent in March. - The Rams would like to re-sign Miller, but it wouldn’t be surprising if the 32-year-old edge defender opts to test free agency this spring. That would leave the door open for the possibility of Miller returning to the Denver Broncos. - Denver traded Miller to Los Angeles in exchange for second- and third-round draft picks last November. The move worked out for everyone — the Rams and Miller won a Super Bowl and the Broncos got two extra draft picks for a player already scheduled to become a free agent. - Now some fans in Denver — and wide receiver Tim Patrick — are hoping Miller will re-sign with the Broncos as a free agent. - - Alright @VonMiller you can come back to the broncos now! Congrats my brotha - — Tim Patrick (@Tpstreets) February 14, 2022 - - - It would be quite the feat for general manager George Paton to trade Miller mid-season in 2021 and then get him back in 2022 with two extra draft picks. It remains to be seen how likely that possibility could be. - Denver has around $50 million in salary cap space and Miller has a market value of $10.6 million, according to an estimate from Spotrac.com. - It seems that the Broncos could afford to sign Miller, but the team will also have several in-house players to re-sign and Denver will want to have cap space available for the possibility of acquiring a veteran quarterback. Nevertheless, from a financial perspective, Miller returning seems feasible. - NFL free agency will begin on March 16. - Follow the Broncos Wire Podcast: - Apple Podcasts | Spotify | Google Podcasts - - - List - - Best draft prospects at Broncos' biggest positions of need - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Email - - - - - Sign up - - - - - - - - Like this article? - Sign up for the Broncos Wire email newsletter to get our top stories in your inbox every morning - - - - An error has occured - - - Please re-enter your email address. - - - - - - Thanks for signing up! - - - You'll now receive the top Broncos Wire stories each day directly in your inbox.
