Miller is facing a police inquiry

Broncos linebacker Von Miller is under investigation by police in a Denver suburb.

Parker police spokesman Josh Hans confirmed the investigation Friday, but he said he couldn’t provide additional details. Hans wrote in an email that, “if the investigation determines a crime has occurred, charges will be submitted to the DA’s Office for their review.”

The Broncos released a statement saying they were “aware of an investigation involving Von Miller and are in the process of gathering more information.”

The former Texas A&M standout missed the 2020 season after hurting an ankle just before the opener.

The Broncos have a decision to make on Miller for next season. They hold a club option that must be exercised by the first day of the new league year in March that would guarantee him $7 million.

The 31-year-old Miller is due $17.5 million in salary in 2021, the final year of the sevenyear, $114 million contract he signed months after his Super Bowl 50 MVP performance.
