Bills sign veteran pass rusher Von Miller to six-year, $120M deal

The Buffalo Bills have signed pass rusher Von Miller to a six-year deal.

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports that Miller’s contract is worth $120 million. ESPN’s Adam Schefter adds that $51.5 million of Miller’s deal is guaranteed including $34 million fully guaranteed at signing.

The veteran joins the Bills after winning a Super Bowl with the Los Angeles Rams who made a big push to bring him back after he had five sacks in eight regular season games. He had another five in the playoffs for the Rams including two in  Super Bowl LVI.

Miller was traded to Los Angeles from the Denver Broncos who drafted the pass rusher with the second overall pick in the 2011 NFL Draft. The 32-year-old leads all active defensive players with 115.5 sacks in his career.

Miller has eight Pro Bowl selections and three first-team All-Pro selections and was named the MVP of Super Bowl 50 after he recorded 2.5 sacks in the Broncos win over the Carolina Panthers.

The Bills also signed former Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end O.J. Howard to a one-year, $3.5 million and can be worth up to $5 million total. The 19th overall pick from the 2017 NFL Draft appeared in 17 games for the Bucs last season but only had 14 receptions for 135 yards and one touchdown.

NHL exec Colin Campbell explains league’s schedule goals in Canada

NHL senior executive vice president Colin Campbell says the league would like to try to preserve as many full-capacity home games as possible for Canadian fans, but acknowledges other factors are at play in redoing the schedule during the current COVID-19 surge. “You’d like to give the fans the opportunity to go to as many games as they can. They’ve already been shortchanged in the last year and a half … shortchanged completely watching hockey here in Canada,” Campbell said in an interview on the Real Kyper and Bourne show on Sportsnet 590 The Fan on Friday. “It’s a rite of passage to watch the world juniors this time of year for all young kids. I remember growing up watching it. Now, it’s cancelled. We’re trying to save as much as we can and delay it.” The NHL postponed nine more games on Friday because of arena capacity issues in Canada — with teams being allowed anywhere from zero fans (Montreal Canadiens) to 50 per cent capacity (Calgary Flames, Edmonton Oilers, Vancouver Can...

Why some NHL games are being played, but not others

With the Omicron variant tearing through the sports world, the NHL has had to adapt by postponing some games while playing others in front of, in some cases, a maximum of 1,000 fans in Canada. So why are some games being played in Canada and others are not? As with everything these days, it’s complicated. TV rights holders, including Sportsnet in Canada, are partially driving those decisions. But not entirely. The Toronto Maple Leafs , for example, had to have their Jan. 3 game with Carolina postponed, but intended on holding their Jan. 1 game vs. the Senators and their Jan. 5 game against the Oilers, partially to placate Sportsnet. But, according to reporting by Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman, when the province of Ontario announced new restrictions for public gatherings that limited crowds to 1,000 fans or less, the league offered the Leafs the option of postponing the two upcoming games. The Leafs wanted to go through with the games, Friedman said, because they hadn’t played a ...
