Denver Broncos took a huge risk by trading Von Miller to Los Angeles Rams. The 32-year-old is not just an outstanding OLB, but a former Super Bowl winner. This puts him in the upper echelon of defensive players in the league. How the Broncos traded him calls for speculation, but he’s now a massive gain for Los Angeles Rams. HOW DID VON MILLER REACT TO HIS TRADE TO LA? The Rams are no more a surprise package in the NFL. With a magnificent team, they have challenged Arizona Cardinals in the NFC West, and are now 7-1. Only three teams are at 7-1, that being Arizona, the Rams and Green Bay Packers. Now, they have a Super Bowl-winning OLB joining their already terrifying defense. Von Miller opened up a bit more on his move to LA in a recent press conference. “I’m excited to be a part of this team. Coach [Sean] McVay, he’s just so energetic and he’s a great coach. It feels like a movie, it really does. It feels like a movie and I’m excited to be in it.” “Initially, it hurt. I’ve been saying it kind of felt like removing a splinter. At first it hurts, it hurts bad. I’ve been there for 11 years. I don’t know anything else. I was a Denver Bronco. They told me that I was getting traded to the Rams. Hurts. Had all my goodbyes. Looking at my house, looking at all the memories that I had there throughout 11 years, it was tough.” “When I took off Tuesday morning, though, I had a nice view of the mountains and I told myself like, ‘Hey, taking off a Denver Bronco. When I land, I’m a Los Angeles Ram.’ I landed, and the had camera crew out there. It was a warm welcome.” There’s no way Von Miller won’t be excited about playing for LA. After all, he will now rule the defense alongside Aaron Donald, Jalen Ramsey, and Leonard Floyd.

When he found out he was headed to LA, he probably said a prayer of thanks. As with this next statement, Miller has solidified his stance in the league and issued a statement to his former team as well. “I went to sleep 4-4 and woke up 7-1.” An absolutely dominating statement from Miller. He went from being 3-0 for the Broncos, suffered a slump which brought them to 4-4, and now aligns himself with the team with the best record in the NFL. Keeping in mind, this record beats out both Tom Brady and Patrick Mahomes.

Von Miller adds more power to an excellent Los Angeles Rams defense, showcasing
how trading him was a big mistake by Denver Broncos.

<h2 style="text-align: center">Denver Broncos 2022: News, Schedule, Roster, Score, Injury Report</h2>
<p style="text-align: center">The Denver Broncos entered the American Football League (AFL) and joined the NFL as part of a merger in 1970. The initial stint wasn’t smooth, to say the least, and the Broncos weren’t competitive during the 10-year run in the AFL. Their woes continued into the early days of the NFL as well. Chiefly, they did not have a winning season until 1973.</p>
<img class="aligncenter wp-image-498446 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20201231150519/broncos.jpg" alt="" width="1200" height="900" />
<p style="text-align: center">Four years later, the Denver Broncos qualified for the playoffs for the first time in franchise history and advanced to Super Bowl XII. Their fortune turned for the better after 1975 and the club only suffered nine losing seasons. They scalped eight AFC Championships and three Super Bowl championships, the most recent being in 2015.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">Their high hit-rate in Super Bowl appearance means they also share the NFL record for the most Super Bowl losses (tied with the New England Patriots-5).  Not to mention, their lofty success has produced several pro-bowl Hall of Famers and MVP candidates through their years of dominance at the top.</p>
<img class="aligncenter wp-image-498440 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20201231150316/cbs-1.jpg" alt="" width="1200" height="675" />
<p style="text-align: center">The 2020 season left plenty to be desired and the Denver Broncos were officially out of contention early on. They placed 4<sup>th</sup> in the AFC West rounding out a losing 5-11 overall record. The Broncos failed to improve on their 7-9 season from last year. What’s more, they suffered their fourth consecutive losing season.</p>

<h2 style="text-align: center">Logo</h2>
<p style="text-align: center">The original logo depicted a football player riding a bronco horse, and this image stayed with the team for one year. The next logo that ran from 1962 to 1967 gave the earlier design a more fierce look. The football player was now standing on the back of an orange horse. Both the Bronco and the player looked more brutal.</p>
<img class="aligncenter wp-image-498449 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20201231150654/denny.png" alt="" width="1000" height="560" />
<p style="text-align: center">The following years removed the rider and a ‘D’ emblem was used which saw a bronco horse emerging vertically drawn in white with a black outline. From 1997 to modern-day, the Denver Broncos Logo has remained the now-iconic horse profile facing right. The bronco’s head in white features a dark outline and the main and eyes are orange colored.</p>

<h2 style="text-align: center">Owner Achievements</h2>
<p style="text-align: center">Pat Bowlen was the majority owner of the Denver Broncos right up to his death in June 2019. The Bowlen family, including two of his brother, purchased the team from Edgar Kaiser back in 1984. Bowlen served as Broncos CEO until July 2014 where he stepped down from the position due to the progression of Alzheimer’s disease.</p>
<img class="aligncenter wp-image-498455 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20201231150945/patty.jpg" alt="" width="1920" height="1280" />
<p style="text-align: center">After Bowlen acquired the team in 1984, the Broncos briefly held the highest winning percentage of any active franchise in the league. The metrics stood at 334 wins, 212 losses, and 1 tie, rounding out a 0.612 winning percentage passing the San Francisco 49’ers after the 2015 season. At the time of Bowlen’s death, the New England Patriots had surpassed that figure.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">In August 2022 the Walmart heir Samuel Robson Walton took ownership of the Denver Broncos. He bought the franchise for a whopping $4.65 Billion, the most ever paid for a franchise in the history of all sports.</p>

<h2 style="text-align: center"> Denver Broncos 2022 Sponsors</h2>
<p style="text-align: center">Frequent franchise partners BetMGM and the Broncos agreed to a multi-year sports betting partnership that includes a premium lounge at Empower Field at Mile High. The Lounge will allow fans 21 years and older access to a full-service premium bar, a luxury lounge, and live odds with BetMGM’s mobile app.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">Additionally, the Broncos also have a tie-up with Betfred USA Sports ahead of Betfred’s launching a Colorado presence. Not to mention, the club agreed to a multi-year deal with FanDeul Group for legalized sports betting and daily fantasy partnership. The partnership gives Fan Duel access to official Broncos marks and logos to use across FanDuel’s sports betting offerings in Colorado.</p>

<p style="text-align: center">Aaron Donald is a professional player in the NFL who plays for the Los Angeles Rams as a Defensive Tackle. He is currently one of the most dominating defensive prospects in the league and is regarded as one of the greatest defensive players of all time.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">In his room of accolades shines three Defensive Player of the Year trophies which he won in 2017, 2018, and 2020 respectively. As of now, he is the reigning Super Bowl Champion with the Los Angeles Rams.</p>

<p style="text-align: center">Donald was drafted by the St. Louis Rams in the 2014 NFL Draft as the 13th overall pick. He is one of the two players on the team who used to be a part of the St. Louis roster once.</p>

<h2 class="jsx-3677412058" style="text-align: center"><strong>Aaron Donald Net Worth</strong></h2>
<p style="text-align: center">According to <a href="https://www.celebritynetworth.com/richest-athletes/nfl/aaron-donald-net-worth/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Celebrity Net Worth</a>, the net worth of the star Rams tackle is expected to be around $60 million. With a whopping average annual salary of at least <a href="https://www.nbcsports.com/bayarea/49ers/nfls-highest-paid-defensive-players" target="_blank" rel="noopener">$30 million</a>, Donald is currently the highest-paid defensive player on the turf.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">As a rookie, Aaron Donald signed a fully guaranteed $10.13 million for four years which included a $5.69 million signing bonus and a fifth-year option. The contract reaped every dime of it after Donald was named the NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year and was named in the NFL All-Rookie Team.</p>

<p style="text-align: center">In 2018, AD signed a six-year contract extension worth $135 million with $87 million guaranteed making him the highest-paid defensive player in NFL history, until Khalil Mack signed a $141 million deal with Chicago Bears.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">Before the start of the 2022 season, the Rams re-negotiated his deal, which added $40 million to his original $135 million contract. The re-negotiation made him the first non-QB with an average annual salary of more than $30 million.</p>

<h2 class="jsx-3677412058" style="text-align: center">Aaron Donald Stats</h2>
