Was there meaning behind John Elway’s Words on Von Miller?

Denver Broncos General Manager John Elway was seen out with friends on Thursday and responded a bit to the Von Miller contract. But were his words something we should be concerned about?

The contract negotiations between the Denver Broncos and Von Miller are still underway. Here is an important date to focus on. July 15^th is the deadline to get the Super Bowl MVP a deal before playing under the franchise tag.

However, that can be retracted like the situation with Josh Norman and the Carolina Panthers. But the chances of that happening are unlikely. Both sides want to come away with a deal that benefits them both in the long run.

With media all over the story, you were bound to know how the sides felt about it. Or is that the case with John Elway?

TMZ Sports saw John Elway leaving Craig’s in Los Angeles, California Thursday night and decided to ask him a couple of questions. I will say that the general manager’s state of mind was a bit, clouded. But it seems like he had a good time with his friends.

How could I tell he had a good time? He came out of the restaurant hiding from the cameras and playing it off jokingly. Also, when congratulated on his Open Media policy award, he had perhaps the most questionable but funny response.

“Good for you bud.”

I am not sure what prompted the response. Or it could have been a response to someone talking to John Elway that was not picked up by the camera.

With contract talks stalling, TMZ asked Elway what he thought of the negotiations. Smartly, he ignored the question as he got into the car. However, when asked about being cropped out of the White House photo, the general manager for the Denver Broncos said this…

“You know, that is too bad.”

Should Broncos fans be concerned about his response? I honestly would not give this any thought. I feel a bit bad for John Elway because he was just out having some fun with his friends, perhaps could have had a bit to drink. But the fact that the media bombarded him, I am sure he was trying to dodge all questions directed towards him because he did not have to answer them.

That was perhaps the reason that the answers were so short. I honestly say let the man do his job and let him work his magic. There is still a lot of time to get a deal done.

If you are a Broncos fan, there is no need to be worried about what was said. In Elway We Trust, am I right? No need to make a mountain out of a molehill.
