Von Miller turned himself in after he was accused of assaulting his pregnant girlfriend

Buffalo Bills linebacker Von Miller, who’s facing an arrest warrant for a domestic violence case in Dallas, turned himself in Thursday afternoon to Glenn Heights Police in Texas. He immediately posted a $5,000 bond and was released Thursday night from DeSoto Regional Jail.

Miller’s longtime pregnant girlfriend accused him of assaulting her at their home in Dallas on Wednesday, October 29. The warrant was for a charge of assaulting a pregnant person, which is a third-degree felony.

The preliminary investigation determined that Miller and his girlfriend got into a verbal altercation and Miller assaulted the victim. Miller left the scene before officers arrived. The victim was not transported to a hospital but was treated for minor injuries, according to a police spokesperson.      

The NFL may likely place Miller on the commissioner’s exempt list, which could bar him from participating in football activities amid investigations into the arrest. Miller, 34, totaled two tackles through eight games this season for the Bills. His 123.5 career sacks are the most among active players. The Bills signed Miller to a six-year, $120 million contract during the 2022 off-season.
