With Week 4 officially over, the NFL has issued a suspension to standout Buffalo Bills edge rusher Von Miller, who, according to Tom Pelissero, will miss the next four games due to a Personal Conduct Policy infraction.
“Von Miller of the Buffalo Bills is suspended four games without pay for violating the NFL’s Personal Conduct Policy, it was announced today,” Pelissero stated in an email. “Miller will be eligible for reinstatement on October 28 following the Bills’ Week 8 game against the Seattle Seahawks.”
After having probably the worst season of his NFL career in 2023, Miller got off to a fast start in 2024, recording three sacks in four games while playing only 35 percent of the team’s snaps as a rotational rusher. While he may no longer be a real star player, his presence will be missed, since he was a significant contributor to the Bills’ success this season.
But the NFL wasn’t done yet; according to Pelissero, the Cleveland Browns were also suspended, with defensive tackle Mike Hall Jr. joining the list for a Personal Conduct infraction.
“The NFL also suspended Mike Hall Jr. of the Cleveland Browns for five games without pay for violating the Personal Conduct Policy,” said Tom Pelissero on social media. “Hall Jr. has been on the Commissioner’s Exemption List. He’ll be eligible for reinstatement on Monday, October 7, after the team’s fifth game.
Hall Jr. began the year on the Commissioner Exempt List due to an offseason incident, but has already retroactively served the majority of his punishment and could return to the field as soon as Week 6, when the Browns face Jim Schwartz’s previous team, the Philadelphia Eagles. Even though the Browns have done well without Hall Jr., Schwartz like rotating his defensive lineman, so having an extra player in the trenches should help everyone improve slightly going forward.
