Broncos OLB Von Miller tests negative for coronavirus

Two weeks after testing positive for the coronavirus, Denver Broncos outside linebacker Von Miller tweeted Thursday that he has tested negative for COVID-19.

Miller was the only current member of the Broncos’ organization who had a confirmed case of the virus.

Los Angeles Rams center Brian Allen was the first active NFL player to be diagnosed with COVID-19 earlier this month.

In March, former Denver wide receiver Orlando McDaniel died from complications related to the coronavirus. McDaniel had a brief stint with the Broncos during the 1982 season. He was 59 years old.

Miller, 31, is Denver’s all-time leader in sacks. He was named MVP of Super Bowl 50 after totaling 2.5 sacks and two forced fumbles in the Broncos’ 24-10 win over the Carolina Panthers in February 2016.

Miller, an eight-time Pro Bowler and three-time All-Pro, has totaled 106 sacks and 25 forced fumbles in his career.

NFL facilities have closed down in an effort to slow down the spread of COVID-19. Denver started a virtual offseason program this week and Miller has been participating in online meetings.
