Von Miller reduced the risk, leaving him in position to increase the reward. No longer in the NFL drug program after staying clean for two years, Miller enters the final year of his contract with added leverage. A positive test will not sideline him for a full season. Because of his clean record and last season’s revamped drug program, Miller starts over. A mistake, which he has shown no signs of making, would only place him back in the program, not result in a suspension.
It shows how far Miller has come since his career went briefly off the rails two years ago.
