The discretion in blasting out the details is understandable. Miller is a future Hall of Famer, whose most recent deal had an APY of $20 million. He was due to make $17.1 million in Buffalo this year on a contract the Bills terminated. To continue his career, he has taken a massive haircut.

The Washington Commanders made a big splash with the Von Miller signing, but it's worth tempering expectations based on his contract structure.
