Von Miller injury: Bills star won't play vs. Patriots in Week 13 Thursday game

The Buffalo Bills have one of the NFL's best defenses, but this unit will be without an important player in next Thursday night's Week 13 game against the New England Patriots at Gillette Stadium.

Bills linebacker Von Miller suffered a knee injury in the team's Thanksgiving Day victory over the Detroit Lions.

It's not known exactly how long Miller will be out of the lineup, but Buffalo head coach Sean McDermott told reporters Friday that the 33-year-old veteran won't play versus the Patriots.

Miller signed with the Bills in free agency last offseason and has made a strong impact on Buffalo's defense.
