Coach Sean McDermott said Friday that Miller will play against the Dolphins on Sunday following his four-game suspension, Alec White of the Bills' official site reports. Miller was reinstated from his suspension Monday, and now the team has confirmed the pass rusher will get right back into the mix. Miller typically doesn't play more than half the defensive snaps given his age and role in the defense, but he does have 3.0 sacks in four games this season.

Miller was suspended for four games Tuesday for violating the league's personal conduct policy, NFL.com and Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN report. Details regarding Miller's suspension have not been released yet, but he'll be ineligible to return until the Bills' Week 9 game against the Dolphins on Sunday, Nov. 3.

Miller posted two tackles, including a sack, in Thursday's 31-10 win over the Dolphins. That's sacks in two straight games for Miller, who didn't have a single one over 12 regular-season games in 2023. He looks to have finally fought back to a semblance of his normal self following significant knee injuries. At 35 years of age, Miller won't be an elite IDP option, especially while he's playing 50 percent or less of the defensive snaps, but if sacks come at a premium in your IDP format we could see him getting 8-10 before campaign's end. The strength of the Buffalo defense lies in its line, and it's likely the team keeps trying to pressure the opponent as it works its way through significant injuries to the other defensive units.

Miller has been participating in OTAs without the use of a brace on his surgically repaired right knee, Alec White of the Bills' official site reports. "That's something I could not do last year," Miller said after Tuesday's practice. The 35-year-old Miller hasn't played more than 12 regular-season games since 2019, as he's battled serious knee and ankle injuries in the final years of a Hall-of-Fame-worthy career. While Miller is no longer a threat for double-digit sack totals, he still has the ability to provide a major boost to Buffalo's pass rush, even as a rotational piece on the edge.

Miller (coach's decision) is inactive Sunday against the Patriots. Miller's inclusion on the inactive list comes as a bit of a surprise, although the veteran hasn't been productive on the stat sheet thus far. The 34-year-old has just three combined tackles and no sacks in 11 games and 225 defensive snaps played this season.
