3 Buffalo Bills who are already turning heads at training camp
By Joe Cook
No. 2: Edge Rusher Von Miller:
When you hear the name Von Miller, you instantly think of the two-time Super Bowl Hero, Super Bowl MVP, and future Hall of Famer. The Bills received, and still are, massive criticism for inking the aging Miller to a huge contract following his Super Bowl win with the Rams. For half of his first season in Buffalo, those voices were quiet. Miller was the premier edge rusher the team was missing, he was closing out games and near the top of the league in sacks. Then, just as it has hit Buffalo hard the last few years, the injury bug bit.
Last training camp, Miller was doing little work off to the side with trainers, as he was close to coming back from the ACL tear. Miller would return only a few weeks into the season and he was not who everyone thought he was. He had no burst or bend, and barely made an impact both physically or statistically. Miller himself admitted at the start of this year's camp he shouldn’t have played last season.
The good news, Miller is now two summers removed from the injury and turning heads at training camp. The word is that he looks like the old Miller again. Reportedly, his speed, burst, and bend are back. Getting the real Von Miller back will be huge for the Bills this season.
