Von Miller regrets signing with Commanders over Seahawks
Veteran pass rusher Von Miller has publicly acknowledged he made the wrong choice in free agency last year, selecting the Washington Commanders over the Seattle Seahawks, who went on to win the Super Bowl. The 37-year-old, now an unsigned free agent, made the admission during a recent appearance on the "89" podcast.
Miller revealed his market was limited in the 2025 offseason, with only two contract offers presented: one from the Commanders and one from the Seahawks. He signed a one-year deal with Washington in July 2025. While the Seahawks captured the championship, the Commanders struggled to a 5-12 record and missed the playoffs.
Reflecting on the decision, Miller said he believed in the trajectory of the Commanders, specifically citing quarterback Jayden Daniels. He noted that Daniels had led the team to the NFC Championship game as a rookie in 2024, and Miller felt he was poised for another great season. Instead, Washington was derailed by injuries across the roster. Miller stated he understood how good Seattle was at the time but ultimately made a calculation that did not pan out.
