Buffalo Bills pass rusher Von Miller was suspended for four games on Tuesday for violating the NFL’s personal conduct policy, according to Tom Pelissero of the NFL Network.

Miller will now miss the Bills’ next four games and will be eligible for reinstatement on October 28.

The suspension likely stems from Miller’s domestic violence offense last fall. Miller turned himself in to police in Texas last November on suspicion of assaulting a pregnant person, which is a third-degree felony. Miller was accused of attacking his longtime girlfriend at their shared home in Dallas. Miller allegedly strangled his girlfriend twice during an argument, pulled out a strand of hair and stomped on her laptop.

However, Miller’s girlfriend later downplayed the incident and denied there was an actual attack. Miller later said the allegations were completely false and had been “blown out of proportion.” The case was eventually closed without charges being filed. The NFL has been investigating ever since.

in 2021 while playing for the Denver Broncos, but he was not charged in that incident either.

Miller will be in the third year of a six-year, $120 million deal with the Bills this fall. He has played in all four of their games this season and has totaled five tackles and three sacks while helping Buffalo to a 3-1 start.
