(The Sports Xchange) - Denver Broncos outside linebacker and Super Bowl 50 MVP Von Miller became the NFL's highest-paid defensive player on Friday after agreeing to a six-year, $114.5 million deal. A record $70 million is guaranteed in the contract, which came hours before the NFL's deadline for franchise players to sign long term contracts. Miller's guaranteed money is eclipsed by only that of Indianapolis quarterback Andrew Luck, who will receive $75 million in guarantees in his $140 million contract extension.
