Yes, everyone is on the lookout for fake stories on April Fools' Day, but when your star player announces he's being traded, logic likely goes out the window and panic ensures.
On Saturday, Von Miller trolled Denver Broncos fans by posting a goodbye along with a picture of himself that said: "Breaking News Traded."
"It's been good Broncos Country," Miller wrote. "I love you guys with the bottom off my heart! Not by choice, this is how the game goes! #sb50champs they can never take that away from us! @espn @nfl"
Later, the Broncos calmed their fan base:
