Von Miller says there’s “no chance” he plays under the franchise tag

Less than 24 hours after video surfaced of Von Miller telling Chelsea Handler he couldn’t see himself sitting out, Von Miller has changed his tune.

The message:

“I love my Teammates, Coaches, and My Fans” but there is “No Chance” I play the 2016 season under the Franchise tag.”

NFL players have very little leverage in contract negotiations, and the best card they can play is the one Von is playing right here. It was only a matter of time before he played it.

As for the timing of the post, right after he told Handler the opposite, read into that however you please.
