There is no question that Denver Broncos pass rusher Von Miller is heading toward Canton, Ohio en route to the Pro Football Hall of Fame. While his illustrious NFL playing career remains in full swing, Miller continues to impress year after year and surely expects to end up among the best to ever do it in Canton.
“Have you thought about the Hall of Fame with Champ [Bailey] going in, is that anything that crosses your mind now that you're in your 30s?” asked James Palmer of NFL.com and NFL Network.
“It didn't have to be 30 for me to think about it, I thought about it my rookie season,” Miller responded. “It's not a priority, because you have to work on the present to get to there. But it's definitely a goal of mine since Day 1.”
I had a chance to catch up with one of the greats today. #broncos @vonmiller . What does he think about another new head coach? The Hall of Fame? How much longer will he play? Also, what was it like being in Paris with @OBJ when he found out he was traded to the #browns? pic.twitter.com/zoB3U58QBv

The Broncos originally selected Miller with the No. 2 overall pick in the 2011 NFL Draft out of Texas A&M while the 30-year-old defender has notably spent his entire NFL playing career in Denver. Winning a Super Bowl and Super Bowl MVP Award during his stint in Denver, the prolific pass rusher has recorded a whopping 98 sacks over the course of his first 120 regular season appearances atop the highest level. Not only that, but Miller has accumulated 443 total tackles and 25 forced fumbles during that same span.
While the Broncos have struggled as of late, Denver had some incredibly memorable years toward the beginning of Miller's NFL tenure. Despite the hard times falling on Denver, Miller remains a force along the defensive front each and every year.
