League takes action
Pregnant woman beaten! NFL suspends Von Miller
We won't be seeing Von Miller on the pitch for the next four weeks. The star player of the Buffalo Bills has been suspended for four games by the NFL (National Football League). As "ESPN" suspects, Miller's arrest last year is the reason for this. The 35-year-old allegedly attacked his then-pregnant girlfriend last November, according to the accusation at the time.
Around a year ago, US media reported that Miller had pushed, choked and pulled the hair of his girlfriend. He turned himself in to the police on November 30 and was released on bail of 5,000 US dollars.
Although the linebacker vehemently denied the allegations, according to "ESPN" the NFL wanted to play it safe. Since Miller - if he was indeed violent towards his girlfriend - had violated the league's personal conduct policy, he was sent on unpaid leave for four weeks. The 2016 Super Bowl MVP will lose 333,000 dollars.
