Breaking: The $120 million Super Bowl champion and the Bills are no longer together.
Under the direction of a player who has been to the top of the mountain twice, the Buffalo Bills are two victories away from a Super Bowl ring, and this could be their final opportunity to achieve that elusive goal.
Given that the team underwent a mini-teardown over the past year owing to financial issues, Buffalo’s journey to the AFC championship game for the first time since 2020 is at least somewhat surprising.

The achievement is not only thrilling for the squad and its supporters right now, but it also portends well for what the team can do in the years to come as it reorganizes its roster. Von Miller, a seven-time All-Pro edge rusher and two-time Super Bowl champion, is probably going to be included in that ongoing reorganization.

Even though Miller produced far more in 2024 than he did in 2023, it will be difficult to defend paying him $23.8 million to return. The soon-to-be 36-year-old played 33 percent of the Bills’ defensive snaps and recorded six sacks. When, not if, the Bills cut him is maybe the most important question, B/R noted on Monday, January 20. “If the organization releases him before June 1, they will have cleared $8.4 million of his cap cost. At the start of the league season, that would provide them a bit more leeway. However, $17.4 million would be cleared if he were given that classification or waited until after June 1.
Miller won Super Bowl rings with the Los Angeles Rams in 2021 and the Denver Broncos after the 2015 season. During his 13 years as an NFL player, he recorded 129.5 regular-season sacks.
In 36 games over the previous three years, he has only recorded 14 sacks for the Bills, including none in the 2023 season.
