Buffalo Bills Pass rusher Von Miller will miss at least the first four games of the season after the Bills did not to remove him from the physically unable to perform list (PUP list) prior to Tuesday’s 4 p.m. deadline. The 34-year-old Miller injured his right ACL in the Bills’ 28-25 victory over the Detroit Lions last Thanksgiving; he picked up eight sacks in 11 games in his first season with the Bills last year before sustaining the injury.

Miller, an eight-time Pro Bowl selection and three-time All-Pro, will be out for at least the first four games of the season as he recovers from an ACL injury that ended his 2022 season, missing games against the New York Jets, Las Vegas Raiders. Since the Bills will be without Miller for the first four weeks at a minimum, the team has brought in veteran pass rusher Leonard Floyd, pairing hi with third-year standout Greg Rousseau.

The Denver Broncos traded Miller to Los Angeles midway through the 2021 season. After winning the Super Bowl with the Rams during the 2021 season, he came to the Bills via free agency in March 2022, signing a six-year, $120 million contract.

Miller appears on his way to the Pro Football Hall of Fame, and has totaled 123.5 sacks, 561 tackles, 27 forced fumbles and nine fumble recoveries in 161 career starting games with the Denver Broncos, Los Angeles Rams and Bills. He earned two Super Bowl rings (with both Denver and Los Angeles).
