ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that the Broncos are paying $9 million of Miller's remaining $9.7 million salary for this season, making the move a deal for Los Angeles.
The San Francisco 49ers' first game against the Rams comes during Week 10, on Monday, November 15, at Levi's Stadium. The two teams won't see each other again until Week 18 at SoFi Stadium.
The Denver Broncos drafted Miller (6-3, 250) out of Texas A&M with the No. 2 overall pick in 2011. He has registered 19 tackles and 4.5 sacks through seven games with the Broncos this season.
Miller, 32, has recorded 509 tackles, 110.5 sacks, 21 passes defensed, two interceptions, a touchdown, and 25 forced fumbles in 142 game appearances (142 starts) through his 11 NFL seasons, per Pro Football Reference.
