“Alarming 🚨: Bills’ standout linebacker handed a four-game suspension by NFL for going against leagues personal conduct.

For violating the NFL’s personal conduct policy ¹ ² ³, Buffalo Bills standout linebacker Von Miller has been handed a four-game suspension without pay.

This decision follows an incident in November 2023 where Miller was accused of assaulting his pregnant girlfriend, though no charges were filed.

Miller will be eligible to return on October 28, following the Bills’ Week 8 game against the Seattle Seahawks ¹ ² ³.

To fill the gap, the Bills have signed defensive tackle Zion Logue from the Atlanta Falcons practice squad.

It’s worth noting that Miller has had an impressive career, with eight Pro Bowl appearances and three All-Pro teams under his belt ².

Despite this setback, he’ll look to rebound and help the 3-1 Bills continue their strong start to the season.

Key Dates:*

– _October 28_: Von Miller eligible for reinstatement

– _Week 8_: Bills play against the Seattle Seahawks

– _November 2023_: Incident leading to suspension occurred

Impact on the Bills:*

The Bills will need to rely on other players to step up in Miller’s absence. Miller has been a key contributor to the team’s defense, with three sacks and four QB hits in four games this season ³.

His suspension will test the team’s depth and ability to adapt to his absence.

Miller, 35, has three sacks in four games this season. He did not record a sack in 14 games, including playoffs, last season due to a torn knee ligament.

Miller has 126 1/2 sacks, tying him for 17th place on the career list with Derrick Thomas. In his first comments about his arrest in December, Miller denied the allegations, calling them false and “blown out of proportion.” He acknowledged that something happened between them.
