Having a Super Bowl MVP award in your back pocket apparently makes you confident.
But while it didn’t necessarily help Von Miller on “Dancing with the Stars,” it does extend to his looming contract situation.
Via Cameron Wolfe of the Denver Post, Miller told an appreciative crowd at a promotional appearance yesterday that he didn’t envision any drama in terms of his contract.
“I’m going to be here in Denver no matter what,” Miller said. “The contract is going to take care of itself. I’m going to be a Denver Bronco for life.”
Of course, he’s not showing up for workouts, and there’s been no reported movement of a long-term deal since the Broncos used the franchise tag on their star outside linebacker. Miller did say last week he expected a deal “any day,” but that might be more of his bubbly enthusiasm than a reflection of a negotiation.
