Vpn Miller unsuccessfully attempted to cheat an NFL drug test by asking for the help of the urine collector.
The transgression will affect how the NFL collects tests moving forward.
Miller was initially suspended for four games, but his suspension was increased to six games and easily could have been up to a year due to the issue.
Miller's initial diluted sample counted as a positive test and led to notification of his four-week suspension under the NFL's substance-abuse policy.
The collector worked in Miami where Miller spends offseason time and was reportedly "star struck."
One source was "reasonably certain" no money changed hands between Miller and the collector, but that there was concern the NFL may have a problem beyond Miller and the collector involved. The NFL and the NFLPA declined comment.
The NFL has overturned a one-game suspension for Dahon Goldson.
Goldson was fined $100,000, however, for his hit on Darren Sproles in Week 2.
The Denver Broncos will attempt to reclaim $1.25 million in signing bonus money the team gave Von Miller by witholding the money from his paychecks when he becomes eligible to play again.
Executives around the NFL said that the Broncos have no choice but try to reclaim that money because it is how the league office wants affairs like this handled.
Miller is already going to lose $800,000 in game checks.
