Restructures deal Milano agreed to restructure his contract with the Bills on Tuesday, Jordan Schultz of Fox Sports reports.

Impact Milano agreed to shorten his contract with the Bills by a year, leaving him with one year remaining on his deal. It's worth noting the restructure also amounts to a pay cut freeing up roughly $6 million in salary cap space, but the veteran can earn that back in incentives. The 2022 All-Pro linebacker has spent his first eight seasons in Buffalo, only appearing in nine games the last two seasons due to injury.

Ready for AFC Championship Game Milano (hamstring/elbow) practiced in full Friday and does not carry an injury designation for Sunday's road AFC Championship Game at Kansas City.

Impact Milano will be available for the Bills' key road playoff matchup against the Chiefs, as the team finally looks to advance past Kansas City and to the Super Bowl during the Josh Allen-era. The standout linebacker has played 80-plus percent of defensive snaps during each of Buffalo's playoff games thus far, in which span he's totaled eight tackles (four solo) and one sack.

Upgrades to full practice Bills head coach Sean McDermott said Friday that Milano (hamstring/elbow) will practice in full Friday, Maddy Glab of the team's official site reports.

Impact McDermott said the team will still have to see how things go regarding Milano's status for Sunday's AFC Championship Game in Kansas City, a potential indication that the veteran linebacker could still carry a 'questionable' designation on Friday's official injury report. Nonetheless, to see Milano close out his week of practice with a full session bodes well for his chances of suiting up versus the Chiefs.

Still nursing hamstring injury Milano (hamstring) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.

Impact Milano has been limited in consecutive practices due to a hamstring injury he likely picked up during Buffalo's divisional-round win over Baltimore. He's not in realistic danger of missing Sunday's AFC Championship Game against Kansas City unless he suffers a setback in Friday's practice. Since being activated off injured reserve in Week 13, Milano has accumulated 24 tackles (11 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and two fumble recoveries across six games (including two playoff contests).

Limited at practice Bills head coach Sean McDermott said Wednesday that Milano (hamstring) was a limited participant at practice, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports.

Impact Milano played a season-high 88 percent of defensive snaps during last Sunday's divisional-round win over the Ravens, in which he compiled three tackles (one solo). The veteran linebacker appears to have picked up a hamstring issue in the process, but he'll have two more days to upgrade his activity levels before Buffalo discloses designations for Sunday's AFC Championship Game at Kansas City.
