2024 Fantasy Outlook
Milano, who was a first-team All-Pro just two seasons ago, has a degree of upside as a fantasy asset and has proven his value as a steady NFL defender for seven seasons now. As he approached his age-30 campaign, the 2017-third-rounder was returning from a leg injury that limited his effectiveness in 2023. Unfortunately 6-0, 223-pounder sustained another injury in August (torn biceps) that will sideline him indefinitely. Read Past Outlooks

Placed on IR
The Bills placed Milano (biceps) on IR and designated him to return Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Milano was diagnosed with a torn biceps Aug. 15, and he will likely miss a majority of the 2024 campaign. The veteran linebacker will be eligible to return at some point during the season, but his absence will provide increased snaps for Terrel Bernard, Dorian Williams and Nicholas Morrow.

Try as he might, RotoWire's Jerry Donabedian couldn't find a way to bump Josh Allen from the QB1 spot. Teammate Stefon Diggs was a tougher projection, as were some other aging WRs.

Milano is as steady as they come and still in his prime heading into his age-29 campaign. The 6-0, 223-pounder enters his seventh year with the Bills coming off a 2022 effort in which he recorded 99 tackles (72 solo), 1.5 sacks, 11 passes defended and three interceptions. This coming season, the Bills are once again counting on Milano to anchor a strong defense while working as a core piece at outside linebacker.

Suffers another serious injury
Milano suffered a torn biceps in Tuesday's training camp practice and is out indefinitely, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Milano will reportedly undergo surgery as soon as possible in order to have a chance to return late in the 2024 regular season. The talented linebacker was in the midst of a comeback from a fractured leg that he'd suffered in Week 5 of the 2023 campaign against the Jaguars, an injury that proved to be of the season-ending variety.
