Matt Milano injury: What happened to Bills LB vs Jaguars?
As the Buffalo Bills 'host' the Jacksonville Jaguars at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, England, linebacker Matt Milano has suffered a serious injury. During the first quarter of the game with 7:50 left, Milano went down in a pile of players. He was awkwardly rolled up on as he tried to take Trevor Lawrence down.
As a result of the play, Milano wasn't able to get up and he needed assistance getting up and walking off the field. His leg appeared to be in an air cast, and shortly after the injury, the Bills ruled him out of the rest of the game vs. the Jaguars.
The Bills' PR X account gave a quick update ruling Milano out and listing DT Daquon Jones questionable with a pec injury.
This is terrible news for Bills' fans as Milano is one of the best players on their defense. He was selected as an All-Pro and Pro Bowler in 2022 and signed a two-year extension this off-season.
In six seasons, he's been very productive on the Bills' defense and has recorded 313 total tackles, 57 tackles for a loss, 10.5 sacks, eight interceptions, two forced fumbles, nine fumble recoveries, and has scored two defensive touchdowns.
