ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. — Buffalo Bills defensive end Von Miller returned to practice Wednesday after his four-game suspension for violating for the NFL's personal conduct policy was lifted by commissioner Roger Goodell on Monday. 'I'm in a great spot.
I'm just happy all of that stuff is behind me," said Miller, who missed Weeks 5 to 8 without pay. «Since I've been here with the Buffalo Bills, it's either been injury or the PUP list or the suspension, and I'm just happy to have all the stuff behind me for the first time in 2½ years and just able to just focus on football. »… Got nine games left, and once you have something taken away from you — whether it's football stuff, NFL stuff, league stuff, like what happened over the last month or whether it's [an] injury — you just have a new appreciation for the sport." Miller turned himself in to the Glenn Heights (Texas) Police Department on Nov.
30 on an arrest warrant for a charge of third-degree felony assault of a pregnant woman. The allegations of assaulting his pregnant girlfriend in suburban Dallas came during the Bills' bye week in 2023.
He was booked into the DeSoto Tri-City Jail that afternoon before being released on $5,000 bond. He has denied the allegations and said that they are «100% false.» The Dallas County District Attorney's Office confirmed to ESPN last month that the case is closed.
