The Buffalo Bills have been busy ahead of free agency, as they have signed Greg Rousseau, Khalil Shakir, and Terrell Bernard to long-term contract extensions over the past few days. On Sunday, rather than handing out an extension, they decided to move on from veteran pass rusher Von Miller in an effort to clear up some cap space.
Miller signed a six-year, $120 million contract with the Bills back in 2022, but the deal gave the team an easy option to get out after three years, which they are exercising now. With the move, Buffalo is creating $8.4 million in cap space, but even though they are cutting Miller, both sides are open to a potential reunion in free agency.
“The Bills are releasing pass-rusher Von Miller, per me and Tom Pelissero. Miller is set to turn 36 years old before the 2025 season, and Buffalo makes the move now. Both sides, however, are open to a return,” Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported in a post on X, formerly Twitter.
