The Denver Broncos picked up their first win of the season on Sunday, defeating the Los Angeles Chargers by a score of 20-13 on the road.
The victory ended an 0-4 start for the Broncos, but it probably did not save Denver's season.
As a result, there is a strong chance the Broncos could attempt to trade off some talent by the Week 8 trade deadline, but Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports that pass rusher Von Miller will not be among those potentially dealt.
Miller has been with Denver since being drafted by the franchise with the second overall pick back in 2011.
He has gotten off to a rather slow start this season, logging just 18 tackles and a couple of sacks through the first five games, but based on Miller's history, he will probably turn it around at some point.
The 30-year-old has only failed to register double-digit sacks once in his NFL career, and that came back in 2013 when he played in just nine games.
Otherwise, Miller has been a perennial Pro Bowler, making the Pro Bowl in seven of his first eight seasons and earning three First-Team All-Pro selections along the way.
His best season came in 2012 when he racked up 68 tackles, 18.5 sacks, an interception, six forced fumbles, and a defensive touchdown.
Last year, Miller totaled 48 tackles, 14.5 sacks, a pick, four forced fumbles, and three fumble recoveries.
The DeSoto, Texas native has not missed a game since 2013.
Denver will now head back home to play host to the Tennessee Titans next Sunday.
