The Buffalo Bills entered the offseason with the second-worst projected cap situation in the NFL, only ahead of the New Orleans Saints.
Their biggest handcuff was the contract of Von Miller, who was coming off a massive disappointment of a season, recording only three tackles and not registering a sack.
Fortunately for Buffalo, Miller willingly took a pay cut this offseason, lowering his base salary from $17.145 million to just $1.5 million, combined with a $7 million signing bonus to take his base salary up to $8.5 million. The remainder of his money is tied up in incentives where he can earn the totality of his original base salary.
With that in mind, Bills defensive tackle DaQuan Jones rushed to hype up his future Hall of Fame teammate.
Built In Buffalo posted on X asking fans what they thought Von Miller's stats would be this season. Jones quoted the post and projected a massive season for Miller.
"30+ [tackles], 10 Sacks, 4 [forced fumbles], and a pick for good measures," Jones posted.
Should Miller have a bounce back season like that, Buffalo would firmly remain in the Super Bowl conversation, and perhaps finally break the door down and make it to the game's biggest stage.
