At 37, Von Miller stands as a seven‑time All‑Pro and a future Hall of Famer, his résumé glittering with two Super Bowl titles won with the Denver Broncos and Los Angeles Rams. After a storied career that kept him mostly on the road, the veteran edge rusher has now signed a one‑year contract with the Dallas Cowboys, marking his first extended stay in his home state of Texas.
Miller, who has never claimed basketball as a personal forte, says the sport has always been a distant dream, yet his true passion lies on the fairways. He describes golf as his favorite way to unwind with friends, and he is already channeling that enthusiasm into a mentorship role, guiding rookie pass rusher Malachi Lawrence during the Cowboys’ preseason preparations.
A Vision for the Front Office
While the Cowboys have not officially named him to any specific post, Miller’s ambition to move into the front office—whether as director of pro personnel or even team president—has become evident. He cites the influence of DeMarcus Ware, whose mentorship during Miller’s tenure with the Broncos helped shape his professional outlook, and says a veteran presence in the locker room remains essential as he transitions from player to leader.
Beyond the statistics and accolades, Miller’s impact on the Cowboys extends to the culture of the organization. He is praised as a ‘locker room guy’ who supports younger teammates, and his desire to live out what he calls his ‘triple dream’—combining continued involvement with the Cowboys, mentorship, and a life centered on golf—illustrates a new chapter that could reshape his legacy as much as his on‑field achievements.
