Mandatory Credit: Mark Konezny-Imagn Images The NFL suspended Buffalo Bills linebacker Von Miller for four games without pay Tuesday for violating the league’s personal conduct policy.
Miller can be reinstated after the Bills play their Week 8 game against the Seattle Seahawks Oct. 28. He’ll also miss games against the Houston Texans, New York Jets and Tennessee Titans during that time.
Miller, 35, turned himself in to police in suburban Dallas last November in response to an arrest warrant in a domestic violence case involving his pregnant girlfriend. He was wanted for third-degree felony assault, but no charges were ever filed in the case and Miller has maintained his innocence.
Officers responded to a “major disturbance call” at the couple’s home the morning of Nov. 29. Miller is accused of arguing with a pregnant woman and then assaulting her.
Miller was allowed to play while the investigation was conducted.
An eight-time Pro Bowler, seven-time All-Pro (including three first-team selections) and two-time Super Bowl champion, Miller has collected three sacks in Buffalo’s first four games this season coming off the bench.
