Today will mark the first time we get to see Miller in a jersey that isn’t an atrocious navy blue and orange homage to the late-90s. And he comes to town as a part of a Bills roster that is loaded to the gills, but with the same goal, Miller has tried and failed to accomplish in a long time. He’s first all-time in postseason receptions by a tight end, and second all-time in postseason touchdowns among tight ends. Kelce’s meteoric rise to a now long-standing place as the gold standard in tight end play in a league loaded with young, talented players will be honored in Canton, OH exactly 4 years after he decides to retire. Add that to the tight one the Chiefs won to start the 2016 season, and the blowout in Week 9 of 2015 where KC picked off Peyton Manning 4 times and essentially ended his time as a productive NFL quarterback, and Miller is 0 for his last 9 against the Chiefs. He’s climbed to 6th all-time in touchdowns receptions in NFL history for tight ends and is also 6th all-time in tight end receptions. The next closest tight end on the list is 8th and has over 100 fewer catches than Kelce in that timeframe, and he’s the only other tight end in the top 25, but it’s Zach Ertz, not Rob Gronkowski. Miller has only played the Chiefs as a member of the Broncos from 2016-2019, this being his first game against KC as a member of the Bills. Since the 2015 season, Travis Kelce actually has the most receptions of any player in the NFL. Since Christmas Day in 2016, Von Miller has had 12 tackles, 1.5 sacks, and 7 losses in 7 games against the Chiefs. In his rookie year in 2011, he won Defensive Rookie of the Year while racking up 11.5 sacks helping limp a fairly unimpressive Broncos roster to an 8-8 AFC West Championship. While Miller’s track record against the Chiefs up to that point in his career had been stellar, it has taken a nosedive since.
