ENGLEWOOD, Colo. – Outside linebacker Von Miller earned a nod of respect on Wednesday when he was named AFC Defensive Player of the Week for his three-sack performance against the Indianapolis Colts.

After practice on Wednesday, Miller got even more praise from his teammate and coach.

“Von’s obviously playing at a high level,” Head Coach Gary Kubiak said. “Well deserved. Von’s off to a great start.”

Miller, who has racked up four sacks to begin the season, also recorded a forced fumble against Indianapolis that helped the Broncos secure a 2-0 start.
