Denver outside linebacker Von Miller sacked Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton 2.5 times, including two strip-sacks, in the Broncos’ 24-10 victory over the Panthers at Super Bowl 50 in Santa Clara, California on Feb. 7.
Since then, Miller, who was named the Super Bowl 50 MVP, has appeared determined to remind Newton of this at every turn.
Just days after the Super Bowl, Miller poked fun at Newton by tweeting a picture of ‘Kryptonite cleats’ with the caption “Everyone has a weakness” (in reference to Newton’s usual wearing of the Superman logo underneath his Under Armour gear), and then in an appearance on Saturday Night Live.
Now, Miller’s doing it via Instagram.

On Monday, Newton posted a picture of himself on Instagram playing water polo, which USA Water Polo soon after tweeted.
Newton was playing water polo in the pool as part of his new Nickelodeon show, All In With Cam Newton. In the show, Newton helps youngsters slowly achieve their dreams of becoming athletes.
Miller soon afterwards took to Photoshop and on Wednesday, he reposted Newton’s original photo but re-edited to show Miller knocking the ball out of Newton’s hand for another strip-sack, with the caption “Hahaha water polo sack!!!”
