Von Miller: Buffalo Bills linebacker expected to face Kansas City Chiefs after domestic violence allegations

Buffalo Bills general manager Brandon Beane says Von Miller will take part in practice and is expected to play on Sunday as the team waits for the legal process to play out following allegations of domestic violence against the linebacker.

Miller remains in line to feature for the Bills (6-6) when they take on the Kansas City Chiefs (8-4) in a must-win matchup, live on Sky Sports.

Beane spoke for the team as the Bills returned from their bye week off, and a week after Miller turned himself in to police in a Dallas suburb after being charged in a warrant with domestic violence against the mother of his children, who is pregnant.

Miller faces a charge of third-degree felony assault of a pregnant woman, which is punishable by two to 10 years in prison and a $10,000 fine. He is free after posting a $5,000 bond.

"No one wants their name associated with any accusation like that, so that's a natural disappointment. I'm sure he's disappointed," Beane said.

"But things happen sometimes, and again, we have to remember people, we have to give them their fair due process. That can happen to anyone in this room. And I would hope we would all wait and let that play out before we rush to judgement."

The alleged assault occurred on November 29, while the Bills entered their bye week off. According to a police affidavit which officers wrote, Miller twice put his hands on the neck of the woman, pulled out a chunk of her hair and threw her onto a couch. The woman was treated for minor injuries, including bruising on her neck, police said.

The woman and Miller have been in a relationship for seven years and have children together, police wrote in an affidavit supporting the arrest warrant.
