After the Buffalo Bills offense put a quick seven on the board to start the third quarter, the Bills defense took the field minus Matt Milano.
Milano had a big play defending a Drake Maye goal line pass at the end of the half. As the Buffalo defense took the field for the second time in the third quarter, the Bills announced that the linebacker was questionable to return /
The Buffalo linebacker missed the last two games with a pectoral injury that he suffered in Buffalo’s Week 2 win over the New York Jets. In that week, like tonight, Milano ended up on the sideline, helmet in hand after half time.
With Dorian Williams inactive due to a knee injury, that leaves Buffalo with Joe Andreesen and rookie Jimmy Ciarlo, who was signed from the practice squad just yesterday, to play behind Terrel Bernard and Shaq Thompson.
Milano missed most of the last two seasons with first a broken leg that he suffered in Week 5 of 2023 and then a torn biceps he suffered in training camp 2024. This offseason, the Bills restructured his contract, making this the final season he is guaranteed to be in a Buffalo uniform. After spending all eight of his NFL years in Buffalo, will injuries be what send him looking for a new home?
