"Miller has a salary of $17.145 million for 2024. Currently, all of it is guaranteed for injury. Of that amount, $10.71 million is fully guaranteed. The rest of it becomes fully guaranteed in March 2024.

Miller’s contract, a copy of which PFT has obtained, allows the Bills to void the guarantees if he is suspended under the Personal Conduct Policy.

From the team’s standpoint, time will be of the essence. The Bills need a suspension to be imposed before the 2024 season begins, so that the guarantees could be voided and, at the right time, Miller can be released."

Finally some good news!

So what I get out of it is.... if he gets suspended by the NFL, the Bills dont have to pay him for 2024 and can release him and be off the hook?  

 

Sounds too 'good' to be true

That sounds better. 
 

Obviously #1 I hope he didn’t do it. But if he did, we gotta get out of that deal.

This is the perfect opportunity for Beane to get rid of his massive free agent mistake. Signing this overpriced, over the hill salary cap killer was a huge error.

The majority of folks seem to want to be rid of him immediately if for no other reason than he's been useless this season. Did you actually read the thread you are posting in?

You just said "majority". I'm not talking about them. Although that is disgusting too.

Not really sure how contracts work in the nfl with players that are imprisoned during their contract. But I don’t see Ruggs on Vegas’ salary anymore.

Looks like the Raiders took a cap hit of $3 mil in 21' and $4.8 mil in 22' on Ruggs.    It's going to be an ugly situation for the Bills. 

 

On the WGR morning show today, they were talking about the Bills cap problems for next year.   I was thinking the best option would be to get Von Miller to take a pay cut.   Would help the Bills and no one is going to pay Von anything close to what he's scheduled to earn the next 4 yrs wtih Buffalo.   Of course that was before he got in a fight with his baby mama.  Bills are probably screwed now, with limited options.

For the record I'm waiting until ALL the information comes out here.  These kinds of charges are fake all to often for me to be comfortable passing judgement.

For the most part it's not that they're "fake," but that the victim is "in love" with the perp and/or dependent on them so they agree to drop charges in hopes that he will change...spoiler alert, they usually don't, and it's usually not the first time something like this happens that the cops get called.

Hopefully this at least gets him off the field for the rest of the season. Maybe he can get put on the commissioner’s exempt list. 
 

He has been actively hurting us out there.

Yes, he would just need to be on the roster until he is officially suspended.

 

IF he’s officially suspended.

Brandon Beane in light of this information...

Thanks Buddah! We can get out of his cap hit next season if he is suspended. Keep Floyd

You, on the other hand, extoll the virtues of natural healthy foods but eat PBJs and Spaghetti-Os when your wife isn't around, shake paint cans manually even though you know deep down it doesn't work but still do it because it's fun, and very much want to give Von Miller the same due process you give others but just hate him too f'ing much to truly pull it off. 

[Low Positive]

Strange that he hasn't turned himself in yet.

Here's the more specific allegations:

 

Quote

Police allege in the court document that the argument, which started over upcoming travel plans, began about 10:40 a.m. in the main bedroom of their apartment. The woman then went into their home office and slammed the door, which the affidavit says made Miller “visibly angry.”

 

 

Miller then walked into the office and yelled at the woman to “get out,” the affidavit says. The woman tried to comply, but wanted time to retrieve some of her belongings, such as her laptop and phones.

 

As she was grabbing them, the affidavit says Miller shoved and pushed her. The woman repeatedly yelled “Stop, I’m pregnant.”

 

Miller continued to push the woman as he stepped on her feet, which caused her to fall back into a chair, the affidavit says. He then put a hand on her neck and applied pressure for 3 to 5 seconds, according to the affidavit, which police say caused pain but not difficulty breathing. As she continued to try to gather her belongings, Miller grabbed her phone, threw her laptop on the floor and stomped on it, the affidavit says.

 

As she tried to pick up her laptop, Miller yanked her hair, pulling a chunk of it out and causing her to collapse, the affidavit says. She got up and began to record Miller on her phone, which she put in her pocket, police wrote in the affidavit.

 

The affidavit says Miller once again grabbed the woman again, pushed her onto a couch, wrapped both hands around her neck and applied pressure.

 

The woman told Miller she was calling police, which prompted him to leave the apartment, the affidavit says.

 

Police responded to the apartment condominium and saw the woman had “minor abrasions” on her left hand, as well as bruising on her abdomen, left bicep and neck that was “consistent with applied pressure,” the affidavit says.

 

The woman showed police a recording where Miller could be heard in the background yelling and telling her to get out, according to the affidavit. In her 911 call, she also identified herself and Miller, the affidavit says.

 

Gotta wait for more facts to come out. But there are bruises and abrasions on a pregnant woman. I don't really see how even the best case scenario here could be anything less than damning for Von Miller.

I would speculate if there is a police report (which there must be for a warrant) that confirms injuries, he’s done as a Bill. 
 

Only question is whether or not NFL suspends him. Sounds like even if it’s one game, if it’s against the PCP Bills can void his guarantees. Otherwise I think the team eats the money and moves on.
