Bills edge rusher Von Miller began making offseason surges in 2017 and expects to see them continue after he stops playing in the NFL.
That’s why Miller had help organizing this offseason’s session. Raiders defensive end Maxx Crosby and Saints defensive end Cam Jordan have joined Miller in that role, with Crosby seen as a long-term part of the picture as he is 27 years old and the other two players are in their 30s.
Crosby has attended the summit in recent years and called it a “no-brainer” to expand his involvement.
“All rusher is different,” Crosby said, via Tashan Reed of TheAthletic.com. “I can’t do what Von does. Von can’t do what I do. Football and pass rush in general is an art form. We come in all shapes and sizes. It’s not like I’m sitting here worried about distributing information. I feel like you learn more as a player by teaching. . . . I can help someone else grow, I feel like that has a double return.”
Miller said he hopes the involvement of Crosby and others means the plan to continue the annual meetings will be “sustainable” even after he hangs up his cleats.
