Per Nicki Jhabvala and Jon Machota of The Athletic, Miller wants to prove that he can play another season.

“I think I proved to myself that I can play another year,” said Miller, who turned 37 in March. “I want to be here (in Washington), but I’m not in a position to start making demands and saying where I want to play and where I want to be at. Whoever wants me, that’s where I’ll be.”

Miller, who played his high school football at Desoto High School and then played his college football at Texas A&M is currently in his 15^th season in the NFL.

Miller’s former teammate, who he won the Super Bowl in Denver with, and former Cowboy DeMarcus Ware shared what he is bringing to Dallas at the 2026 Dirk Nowitzki Foundation Tennis Classic.

“I think him joining the team, playing with him in Denver, winning the Super Bowl with him. I think the experience that he that he’s bringing here for the boys, and sometimes that’s what you need. I mean, every year we always have a lot of talent, but the experience in winning in the postseason and having that veteran push from Von, I think it’s going to be great,” said Ware.

“So, I’m just excited. I mean, first game wasn’t how we wanted it to look, but they got a game tomorrow, a big you know game against Washington, I think. So, I’m looking forward to see how they’re going to bounce back, especially with Von playing there, you know, last year, how they really gonna dial things in and see how you know they’re gonna play this week.”

As Ware stated, the Cowboys indeed play Washington Commanders at 3:25 pm CST at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas on Sunday afternoon.
