BUFFALO, N.Y. -- The Bills on Sunday released pass rusher Von Miller ahead of the league year. The move opens up $8.4 million in cap space, helping the team to get under the cap before the new league year, which starts Wednesday. The team is open to bringing back Miller, who turns 36 on March 26, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Miller and the Bills are reportedly open to a reunion. Since entering the league as the second overall pick in 2011, Miller has become one of the league’s top pass rushers. The DeSoto product and former Texas A&M standout has posted 129.5 sacks throughout his NFL career, currently ranking 16th on the league’s list of leaders for the statistic.

In a move that saves the team some cap space, the Buffalo Bills on Sunday are releasing eight-time Pro Bowl selection Von Miller, according to multiple reports. NFL Network's Ian Rapoport was first to report the news.
