Specifically, the injury occurred during the last game of training on Tuesday. according to Schefter, this was carried out indoors due to a blizzard hitting here. The Broncos did not even have full pads during the session, and Miller in the shells is said to have sustained what is described as “weird” injury.
Miller was due to start his 10th season in the NFL and was determined to form a rather fast-paced duo, the opposite Bradley Chubbwho missed most of last season with a cruciate ligament rupture. Speaking of Chubba: reports also came out Along with Miller’s injury at the end of the season, he may not be ready for the first week as he continues to recover, so Denver is looking at the prospect of losing two passes. Meanwhile, Miller finished 2019 with a sixth straight Pro Bowl nod, with a total of eight in his career. Super Bowl 50’s top player has also been All-Pro long-term talent (three in the first team, four times in the second team), so the loss will be a major blow to Denver’s top seven.

Skipping the entire 2020 season will also not be the right moment for Miller, who signed until the 2021 season. However, the final season of Miller’s contract in 2021 represents a club option that gives the organization the option to end draws or try to reduce his cap by $ 22.225 million if he is still recovering from this injury.
