Washington Commanders Sign Two-Time Super Bowl Champion Von Miller

The Washington Commanders have signed veteran edge rusher Von Miller to a one-year deal as part of their efforts to strengthen their defense for the 2025 NFL season. Miller, a two-time Super Bowl champion and Super Bowl 50 MVP, brings extensive playoff and leadership experience to a Commanders defense that improved markedly under head coach Dan Quinn in 2024. While Miller's pass-rush production has declined in recent seasons, with just six sacks over the last two years, Washington hopes he can serve as a situational pass rusher and veteran presence to complement their young core and help push the team toward a championship. The Commanders have also invested in other key offseason acquisitions, including trading for left tackle Laremy Tunsil and signing defensive linemen Javon Kinlaw, Deatrich Wise, Jonathan Jones, and Will Harris. This bolstered roster reflects General Manager Adam Peters’ commitment to building on the team’s 2024 turnaround from league cellar dwellers to playoff contenders. Miller’s signing is widely seen as a final piece in Washington’s championship aspirations, adding proven postseason success and experience to a rapidly improving defense.
