Buffalo Bills defensive end Von Miller is showing flashes of his former self in offseason training videos.
We’re approaching 20 months since Buffalo Bills defensive end Von Miller tore his right ACL on the Ford Field turf of Detroit against the Lions on Thanksgiving Day 2022. The road to recovery has been a long one with little production from the future Hall-of-Famer, who has tallied five tackles in his 14 combined regular season and playoff games since returning from knee surgery.
“It took longer than expected, but I am back to feeling like my old self,” said Miller in January 2024. The post-injury production certainly doesn’t match the expectations for someone who initially inked a six-year, $120 million contract . However, there are some signs that 2024 could be a resurgence towards the Miller we remember racking up eight sacks and 12 quarterback hits in his first 11 games with the Bills.
Bills head coach Sean McDermott is cautiously optimistic his star defensive end could be returning to All-Pro form. The sideline boss, stating "Last year was last year. It was kind of those, and it's what you expect, it's first year off of an ACL. It's an uphill climb. Now we're into the second year off of the injury, excited to see what he can do, how he's moving, and how he's going to impact our team.
Adding a healthy, productive Miller to a Buffalo defense that finished fourth in the league in 2023 with 54 sacks would be a welcome sight, especially with the loss of Leonard Floyd’s 10.5 sacks after he signed with the San Francisco 49ers in free agency.Bills' Starting Offensive Lineman details pre-training camp plans
