Buffalo Bills pass rusher Von Miller was suspended for four games on Tuesday for violating the NFL’s personal conduct policy, according to the NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero.

Miller will now miss the Bills’ next four games, and will be eligible for reinstatement on Oct. 28.

The suspension likely stems from Miller’s felony domestic violence incident from last fall. Miller turned himself into police in Texas last November on suspicion of assaulting a pregnant person, which is a third-degree felony. Miller was accused of assaulting his longtime girlfriend at their shared home in Dallas. Among other things, Miller allegedly choked his girlfriend twice during an argument, ripped out a patch of her hair and stomped on her laptop.

Miller’s girlfriend, however, later downplayed the incident and denied there was an actual assault. Miller later said that the allegations were completely false and “blown out of proportion.” The case was eventually closed without charges being filed. The NFL has been investigating ever since.

Miller has appeared in all four games for the Bills this season. He has five total tackles and three sacks.
