Oh this is bad. If he left the scene before the police arrived and she was treated for injuries he's done.

Vonnie is a dumb name

DALLAS — Star NFL linebacker Von Miller faces an arrest in a domestic violence case in Dallas, multiple police sources told WFAA on Thursday morning.

Sources say Miller's longtime girlfriend has accused him of assaulting her at their home in Dallas on Wednesday morning. Sources told WFAA that his attorney has been contacted about the case and that a warrant has been issued for Miller's arrest.

 

As of 9 a.m. Thursday, Miller, 34, had not been arrested.

 

Sources told WFAA that the warrant was for a charge of assaulting a pregnant person, which is a third-degree felony.

 

WFAA reached out to the office of the attorney who is believed to be representing Miller, but the attorney was not immediately available for comment. WFAA has also reached out to a Dallas Police Department spokesperson for more information about the case.

 

Miller, a DeSoto native, is currently a linebacker for the Buffalo Bills, who are on a bye and not playing this week. 

 

Miller previously played for the Los Angeles Rams in 2021 and for the Denver Broncos from 2011-2021.

 

Miller was a star in Denver, where he earned three first-team All-Pro selections and led the Broncos to a Super Bowl victory in 2015. Miller was traded to the Rams during the 2021 season and helped Los Angeles to a Super Bowl victory that season.

 

Miller played college football at Texas A&M.

 

In 2021, Miller was under investigation by the Parker, Colo., police department, but the 18th Judicial District, the district attorney's office for the city, declined to move forward with charges against Miller. Details surrounding the investigation were not disclosed by authorities, and Miller remained on the Broncos team for that upcoming season.

Miller has plenty of money to get this fixed,  I am sure the Bills gave him 48 hours to clean this up.  Any woman can accuse another mam ,  no one knows what happened for sure.  Look at the Matt Araiza situation

He need to get the old Arazia treatment

Yep - you can pursue bonus money paid out or whatever... but you aren't really going to get cap space back.  

 

Likely ends up on exempt list - gets cut post June release.  We end up with 

 

2024 dead - 17M

2025 dead - 15.4M

2024 cap savings - 6.79M 

Brutal

We need a macro for this statement.

has anyone made the tasteless joke that Von intended to hit someone else but missed them and hit this woman instead?

PFT says paid leave can happen right away.  At least it gets him off the field taking snaps away from our more productive DEs

Like somebody else said though, if the cops showed up shortly after it happened, and she had visible bruises, his goose is cooked.

That would only save Pegula money. The Bills are still on the hook for a mountain of dead cap.

If he violates his contract and it voids the guarantees then the Bills can get out after March 1st by designating him a 6/1 cut. We would no longer be on the hook for any of the 2024 compensation. They might even be able to suspend him for the remainder of this season, which would be another $430k. 

 

Next season he already has $10.71M guaranteed with another $6.435M guaranteeing on March 21st. He has another $255k in active roster bonuses in 2024. That adds up to quite the savings - over $17M. I’ll take it if we can get it.

Probably the same percentages that exist in the rest of society, yup

I'd argue it's probably a bit higher.  Many of these players have been protected from consequences a fair amount of times. Add in the money they have that can both open the door to more opportunities to make poor decisions and give them an out to buy their way out of trouble.

 

Johnny Factory Worker assaults his spouse, he's going to jail. Super speedy NFL WR does the same and gets a record setting contract.

If this ends up all being true, my first hope is Von retires from football.  That will be an out for some of the cap.

I doubt there is another stipulation in the contract that would give them a break but will have to see.

 

Von's initial contract wasn't that bad with an out after 3 years, but the restructures made it worse.

 

This should be a lesson to those who feel "restructuring" every large contract has no risk to it.  You can add Tre White's contract

to this too.  I know you have to use it at times but it's not a panacea.

 

Yea.. I can’t get on Beane for the contract in a vacuum.   Von played like a Top 10 EDGE until he tore his ACL. 
 

The restructure makes this worse and also the fact we needed to make the Von move due to Beane missing on Basham and drafting a project in Rousseau and a guy who also took some time in Epenesa. 

[DrDawkinstein]

Another storied year for our totally not cursed team. And we havent even gotten to the snowy part yet.

 

Wonder who the writers kill off this season?...

Wow this is crazy. Von has some explaining to do. Time for Pegula to clean house. McDermott, Beane, Von Miller, Poyer, Hyde ect. They are ruining Josh Allen’s prime years, feel bad for Josh. 
 

 

Is this always about Josh? 

 

What exactly did Poyer and Hyde do to hurt Josh.  They are warriors.
