Tennessee Titans opponent loses All-Pro LB

The Tennessee Titans may have been granted a reprieve in their schedule in October.

The NFL has suspended Buffalo Bills linebacker Von Miller for four games after he violated the NFL's personal conduct policy, according to NFL Network insider Tom Pelissero.

That means the earliest Miller can return is Week 9, confirming his absence in Week 7 when the Bills play the Titans in Buffalo.

This is a big loss for the Bills considering Miller has had a good season so far. After playing in 12 games for Buffalo last year and recording just three tackles, Miller has recorded three sacks in just four games so far this season as the Bills have a 3-1 record to start the season.

At 35 years old, the former number 2 driver in the overall standings proves that he still has some energy left in the tank and that he shouldn't be ruled out as a contributor for the future.

However, his four-game suspension is slowing his momentum, and that's a big loss for the Bills.

The Titans should be lucky they won't see Miller this season. In five career games against the Titans, Miller has 17 tackles and 2.5 sacks, so he won't be able to add to those totals in this next meeting.

The offensive line has struggled so far this season, allowing 16 sacks. Will Levis is the third-most sacked quarterback in the NFL behind Cleveland Browns star Deshaun Watson and No. 1 overall pick Caleb Williams of the Chicago Bears.

The Bills defense is still scary without Miller, but they will be shorthanded against the Titans when they come to Western New York later this month.

For now, the Titans will enjoy their farewell and then prepare for their game against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 6 before turning their attention to the Bills in Week 7.
