Von Miller Wants To Play 5-7 More Years

Jul 12, 2021 5:34 PM

Von Miller is 32 and entering the final season of his current contract, but he would like to extend his career another five to seven years. 

“I’ve got a son,” Miller told Mike Klis of 9 News. “He’ll be here in about three or four weeks. I definitely want him to be able to see me play. That’s going to take about 5 to 7 years. That’s what I have on my heart; that’s what I have on my mind — another 5 to 7 years. Whatever God will give me, I’m going to take it.”

Miller was the second overall pick in 2011 and has been one of the NFL's best pass rushers when healthy. 

Miller ruptured his ankle the week of the 2020 season opener and required surgery that kept him out all year.

“I’m feeling good,” Miller said. “My ankle is about 94 percent. The 6 percent I got to get I got to get rushing the passer in practice with pads on, leaning on guys, guys leaning on me. I haven’t rushed the passer in over a year. Haven’t played in a game in longer than that."

Peyton Manning: Brady Would Have 11 Rings If Not For Olivia Manning

Peyton Manning credits his mother, Olivia Manning, for keeping Tom Brady's Super Bowl ring count to seven instead of 11.

“If it wasn’t for my mother, Olivia Manning, he’d have 11 of ’em,” Manning said of Brady.

Eli Manning and the New York Giants defeated Brady's New England Patriots in two Super Bowls, while Manning defeated Brady in three AFC Championships.
