Von Miller recently said he regretted choosing the Commanders over the Seahawks almost exactly a year ago. He signed with Washington on July 16, a season after the Commanders played in the NFC Championship Game. The Seahawks, though, won the Super Bowl.
Now, the edge rusher is looking for a new home.

He has said he would love to return to the Broncos and has previously talked about re-signing with the Commanders. The Cowboys, who play 24 miles from his hometown of DeSoto, now have his eye.
On Wednesday, Miller posted a photo of himself in a No. 24 Cowboys jersey with a “Shhh” emoji.
That came two days after he told R.J. Ochoa of SB Nation that “it would be great to be a Dallas Cowboy.”
“I grew up here in Dallas,” Miller said. “I’ve always had a special place in my heart for the Dallas Cowboys. If I played for the Dallas Cowboys this year, I [would] only have to drive 20 minutes to work. This would be the first time that my mom and dad don’t have to fly to every single game. My mom has been to every single game that I’ve ever played in, and she’ll be able to drive to all the home games, and you know I got so many family members here. My kids are here. My family is here; [my] girlfriend is here. Everybody’s here. It’d just be easy to work it out, so you never really know.

“You know we talked about that magnetic field in College Station [when he played at Texas A&M]. Maybe the magnetic field here in Dallas will get me there. So I would love to play for the Dallas Cowboys, and it’d be amazing.”
Miller won a Super Bowl with the Broncos, earning MVP honors in the process, and another with the Rams. The Cowboys haven’t even been to an NFC Championship Game since winning their last Super Bowl in the 1995 season.
In 14 NFL seasons with the Broncos, Rams, Bills and Commanders, Miller has 138.5 sacks. His nine sacks last season, when he played 37 percent of the defensive snaps, were his most since 2021.
