Denver Broncos linebacker and Super Bowl MVP Von Miller spent some time with his dad as CBS Sports followed them for a segment called All In with Von Miller.
The Denver Broncos and Von Miller are in the midst of working on a new contract that will keep the Super Bowl MVP a Bronco for a long time to come. Even though they have yet to agree on a deal as of yet, there is hope.
With all of the recent news and analyst pieces on the contract situation, I will be taking a look at Von Miller in everyday life. CBS Sports released a video in which the Broncos linebacker spends some time with his dad. With Father’s Day on Sunday, I will be taking a look at how his father helped shape his career in the NFL and his life.
Whether it's eating pizza or dunking in @Dockers, Von Miller and his dad have always shared a special connection. https://t.co/69Uvd70y4G

The video shows Von Miller and his dad as they spend some time together in the city of Manhattan Beach, California.
This video is very empowering, especially when his dad tells the story about how Von Miller thought about giving up sometime during his sophomore year. He credits his dad for getting him to this point. His advice to Von was really touching due to how one phone call ended up keeping him on track to where he is today.

Back in his childhood, there was a time where his father would not let him play football. So his mom would hide his jersey and other football equipment. His dad ended up finding out and was not happy. But I am certain that he is okay with it today.
This video also shows the importance of spending time with loved ones, especially parents. It is difficult for professional athletes to be able to spend quality time with friends and family due to schedules. The fact that Von Miller and his father appear like each other’s best friend is an amazing thing to see.
So, on Father’s Day, do not forget to thank your dad and celebrate him.
