Von Miller noted in an interview a while ago that he wants to play 10 lbs heavier this year than he did in 2018. I think it’s interesting to see Von experimenting with his playing weight, and that it’s something that’s worth digging into a little more deeply. Obviously, a player of his caliber doesn’t make a change like that casually. So what is the reason?My guess is that he’s doing it in order to figure out ahead of time how to extend his prime/career for as long as possible: To be as good as he can for as long as he can, even if that means evolving his game.
What’s that? Your Von Miller is evolving!
