The Los Angeles Rams are two wins away from a Super Bowl parade. If Von Miller's dreams are any indication, it's only a matter of time.
In a recent feature from Sports Illustrated's Greg Bishop, Von Miller was apparently already imagining him lifting the Lombardi trophy together with wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. months before both of them ended up joining the Rams.
Miller and OBJ were friends before teammates and were training together as they both rehabbed their respective injuries from the previous season. There he dreamed of them playing together, at first while awake, then eventually even when he was fast asleep. But any thoughts of it happening in Cleveland were shut down by Beckham himself.
Maybe in Ohio, Miller wondered, daydreaming out loud.
“Don’t come to Cleveland,” Miller says Beckham told him.
Fortified, hopeful and aware that the daydream was more like a pipe dream, both reported to their respective training camps. They didn’t know that Miller would be traded to the Rams on Nov. 1, swapped for second- and third-round draft picks, shipped out of the only professional football home he had ever known. One night around that time, he had an actual dream, in which Beckham was featured prominently, the receiver winning Super Bowl MVP just like he had. But in his dream, Miller also felt elated, and while he would have expected to be happy for his friend, he couldn’t figure out why he was that joyful.
A few days after the dream, Odell Beckham Jr. was released by the Cleveland Browns and soon found his way to LA. Now the superstar tandem have a great chance to make those dreams a reality.
