Bills GM Beane Expects Von Miller Legal Situation 'To Go Away'

Miller returned to game action in Week 5 this past season, but noticeably struggled to make an impact during his limited reps. He did not register a sack in 14 appearances, including a pair of playoff games.

"I've spoken to Von after the season, since it ended. I would say Von the last few weeks, we sat him down the one game, I would say that Miami, Pittsburgh, KC, you saw the flashes of it," said Beane. "I think now it's just more of it and getting him in a rhythm. It's that fine balance of like a shooter, how many shots does he need to get going? Von's a rusher, he's a shooter from there. So, what does he need to get his lather, but understanding at his age, you don't want him playing 40, 45 snaps either."

Miller, who will turn 35 on March 26, has logged 123.5 sacks since being drafted by the Denver Broncos at No. 2 overall in 2011. The Super Bowl 50 MVP ran into some legal trouble at home in Texas during the Bills' bye week this past November, eventually turning himself in to local authorities on a warrant. Miller has denied any wrongdoing, claiming all allegations stemming from a reported domestic disturbance are false. 

"We're pretty confident in what we know hence we didn't any kind of drastic moves at the time," said Beane providing an update on the ongoing situation. "We know what we know and unless we're presented with something different ... we don't see anything that would alter Von being back. We expect it to go away."
