If you know resumes and the careers of the Buffalo Bills roster, it’s a no brainer.
The NFL introduced the 2023 Pro Football Hall of Fame class over the weekend. In total, Canton welcomed nine new members to the exclusive club.
In light of the events, CBS Sports decided to name every team’s most likely Hall of Famer currently on their roster.
Don’t overthink it for the Bills: It’s pass rusher Von Miller.
One of the best to ever do it, Miller came to Buffalo last offseason with huge hype and via a massive contract for a reason.
Coming off a knee injury, plenty of Miller’s story in Buffalo has yet to be written. If he can bounce back successfully, there’s no reason to believe he won’t continue to put up huge numbers with the Bills.
In 11 games last season, Miller notched an impressive eight sacks. Without injury, double digits was poised to happen.
But regardless of what he achieves in western New York, Miller is still easily a lock. Heading into 2023, Miller has 123.5 career sacks. Not only is that good for 19th most in NFL history, Miller is the current leader in sacks amongst all active players.
Canton might as well start making that bust now.
For what it’s worth, here’s how CBS Sports breaks down Miller’s Hall of Fame candidacy:
Current Hall of Fame “lock”? Yes
- Miller has tormented opposing quarterbacks for the past decade
This is an easy one. The eight-time Pro Bowler and three-time first-team All-Pro is also the NFL’s active leader with 123.5 career sacks. Coming off a Super Bowl title with the Los Angeles Rams, Miller signed last offseason with Buffalo. He is trying to become the first player to win three Super Bowls with three different teams.
