Won't practice Wednesday Milano (illness) will not practice Wednesday, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports.

Impact Milano played in the Bills' last nine games consecutively before resting with most of the defensive starters in the team's Week 18 victory over the Jets. The linebacker appears to have acquired an illness, but it will likely not stop him from playing in Sunday's playoff game against the Jaguars. The 31-year-old will have two more opportunities to elevate his practice participation and prove he is over the illness in time for Sunday's contest.

Limited by injury again in 2025 Milano recorded 67 tackles (36 solo) including 3.5 sacks and a forced fumble in 12 regular-season games with Buffalo in 2025.

Impact While Milano was one of the Bills' top linebackers whenever he was available, an early-season pectoral injury and late-season load management limited him to just 12 games in 2025. He has now appeared in just 21 regular-season games in the past three years combined. He'll turn 32 in July, and it's unlikely he'll ever again match the highest snap shares he took up earlier on in his career. With that said, he's currently set to become a free agent this offseason and could be a steady contributor for a team that sees value in a veteran presence at linebacker in 2026.

Logs seven stops vs. Philadelphia Milano logged seven tackles (four solo), including 0.5 sacks, during the Bills' 13-12 loss to the Eagles on Sunday.

Impact Milano and Greg Rousseau combined for a two-yard sack on Jalen Hurts late in the third quarter. Milano is up to 67 combined tackles and 3.5 sacks through 12 regular-season games, and his sack total matches his career high that he set in 2020 (across 10 regular-season games). His final opportunity to set a new career high in sacks is this Sunday against the Jets.

Logs four tackles in loss Milano recorded four tackles (two solo) in Thursday night's loss to the Texans.

Impact Milano has started all seven games he's appeared in this season, but he's no longer an every-down linebacker for Buffalo at 31 years old. The veteran has 33 tackles (17 solo), including 1.0 sacks, on 258 defensive snaps but is a candidate to see increased playing time in the wake of Terrel Bernard's elbow injury that could land him on injured reserve.

Practices in full Milano (pectoral) will practice in full Wednesday, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports.

Impact The 31-year-old had missed Buffalo's last two games due to a pectoral injury that he aggravated in the Week 5 loss to the Patriots, but Wednesday's full practice suggests he's moved past the issue. Milano has appeared in three games for the Bills this year, recording 15 total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, over 100 defensive snaps. Now fully healthy, he's expected to start alongside Terrel Bernard in the Bills' linebacker corps.
