Von Miller expresses dissatisfaction with his salary after joining Dallas Cowboys

Veteran outside linebacker Von Miller signed a one-year deal with the Dallas Cowboys worth $5.5 million, with potential incentives raising the total to $7.5 million. Despite joining the team for the 2026 season, Miller stated on the Free Ranger podcast that he believes he is underpaid for his on-field performance. The 37-year-old finished the 2025 season with nine sacks while playing for the Washington Commanders. Miller characterized his current contract as compensation for his presence in the locker room rather than his defensive production. He previously considered joining the Seattle Seahawks before choosing Washington last year. The Cowboys signed the veteran to support their ongoing defensive rebuilding efforts and provide experience to new recruits.
