Is Broncos outside linebacker Von Miller using Instagram to let G.M. John Elway know that he’s not happy with the status of contract negotiations?
That’s the inference from some who saw this picture on Miller’s Instagram showing himself, coach Gary Kubiak, Peyton Manning and DeMarcus Ware at the team’s White House visit this week. That picture originally appeared on Ware’s Instagram
and also included Elway. Some saw the way Elway was cropped out of the
picture on Miller’s Instagram as a sign that Miller is unhappy with
Elway.
And Miller probably is unhappy with Elway right now. Miller wants more than $70 million
in the first three years of his contract, and Elway isn’t willing to
give him that. When you ask for what you think you’re worth and the boss
counters with less, it’s only natural to be disappointed.
So Miller’s cropping of the photo was probably intentional, and
probably indicative of his feelings right now. And if Elway plays
hardball with Miller and tells him to play on the franchise tag or not
at all this season, it may be a long time before we see a picture of
Miller and Elway smiling together again.
