Matt Milano

The return of Matt Milano this offseason was a big win for the franchise as they were able to bring back one of the key parts of this defense. He was a player that steadily improved each season but was coming off a down year due to injuries.

This season, Milano is playing on another level, and showing the Bills’ decision to bring him back was a smart one. In two games, Milano has 10 total tackles, four tackles for a loss, one sack, one QB hit, one pass defended, and one fumble recovery.

Through two games, with how good the pass rush has been and the plays made in the secondary, Milano may not get the credit he deserves. He has been a key part of this defense and is a big reason for their success to start the year.
