Buffalo Bills defender Von Miller has publicly commented for the first time since he was arrested. A warrant was issued for him which accused him of assaulting a pregnant woman, a third-degree felony in Texas.
The 34-year-old turned himself in to police on Nov. 30. That was the Bills’ bye week.
Miller has since continued playing for Buffalo’s defense in a rotational role. Miller’s first comments come nearly a month after his arrest as the Bills (9-6) prep to take on the New England Patriots (4-11) in Week 17 at Highmark Stadium.
The woman in the named in the case is Miller’s girlfriend. He adamantly denied the accusations.
“Obviously there are things that I can’t talk about,” Miller said. “But everything that was out is completely wrong and blown out of proportion.”
Previously, Buffalo general manager Brandon Beane addressed Miller’s arrest and said it was “out of character” for the person he knows.
