This is now the second straight year the #Bills lost a key defensive player on Thanksgiving: Tre'Davious White tore his ACL last year, Von Miller tears his ACL this year.
Both injuries on Slit Film Turf. https://t.co/AbArXI2mVy

Von Miller had said he hoped to be back after missing just one game. The team put him on IR to ease him back. Then, exploratory surgery yesterday revealed the ACL was, in fact, torn. Now, out for the season. A crushing loss. https://t.co/GPGpVmkZ5H

I promise you nobody outside of Buffalo feels sorry for the Bills. It is what it is. Injuries suck but they are a very real part of the game.
DE group still has 2 first round picks and 2 second round picks in it. Were positioned fairly well for a deep run last year without Von. https://t.co/WfvspixZPe

Yeah, but… I took a look yesterday at the Bills’ pass rush without Miller on the field this season, and they can still get it done.
As long as they don’t blitz. https://t.co/xNWH22Hqpz https://t.co/Xtg49K0peY

Huge news out of Buffalo: Von Miller has a torn ACL, per head coach Sean McDermott. He's out for the season.

Jeremy Fowler, ESPN
While the imaging didn't show an ACL tear on Von Miller's knee, the 'looseness' of the knee was worrisome as he underwent surgery this week. Turned out to be ACL.
Miller eyes an early season return in 2023.

Von Miller is done for the season. They took a look at his knee and found out his ACL was torn. Big blow for the Bills.

Hard to describe the impact Von Miller has had on Bills.
They’ll miss his team-high 8 sacks. But I also think about Greg Rousseau telling me how Von helped his game & changed entire D’s mentality + weekly T-Shirts Von got for whole D to honor legends like Leslie Frazier below. https://t.co/KdNjZIRbrM

Worry for #VonMiller ACL tear with residual laxity from 2013 ACL surgery was our first impression on Thanksgiving Day. Unfortunately that has now come true after several twists and turns. 🙏 https://t.co/ZpA5eyamYP
