Von Miller: Bills locker room 'kind of has like a college vibe'

Star pass-rusher Von Miller has many reasons to love the Buffalo Bills in the early days of the team's voluntary offseason program. 

Roughly one month after Miller earned his second career Super Bowl ring, this time as a member of the Los Angeles Rams, he put pen to paper on a six-year deal reportedly worth up to $120 million with $45 million fully guaranteed at signing to join the Bills in free agency. Per Michael David Smith of Pro Football Talk, Miller spoke with reporters Wednesday about what he feels makes Buffalo such a special team this spring. 

"I love these guys," Miller said of his new teammates. "I knew about the team, I knew about the players here, but the collection of guys, the collection of personalities is nothing like I’ve ever been on. I was with the Rams last year and it was like the Pro Bowl every day. You’ve got talented guys all around — Jalen Ramsey, Aaron Donald, Cooper Kupp, Matthew Stafford. I had Odell Beckham — his locker was right across from mine. We had a great locker room there, but this locker room is great. It kind of has like a college vibe here at the facility. 

"The facility is great here. Whenever we’re here at work it’s great. When you walk outside, I’m still getting used to the wind and being in Buffalo, but everybody I’ve talked to that moved here from big cities, they love it. They grow this love for this city, they grow this love for snow and wind. I’m hoping that’ll be me but I haven’t gotten there yet. But when we’re here at the facility, it’s a dream. It just reminds me of why I made the decision to come here to Buffalo."

Miller was named Most Valuable Player of Super Bowl 50 after the Denver Broncos defeated the Carolina Panthers in that title game. The 33-year-old is now tasked with helping Buffalo quarterback Josh Allen and company get past the Kansas City Chiefs and all other AFC opponents en route to playing on the final Sunday of a season.
