Both the Bills and the NFL released statements on Thursday as the reports of Miller's arrest warrant began to surface.
"This morning, we were made aware of an incident involving Von Miller," the Bills said. "We are in the process of gathering more information and will have no further comment at this point."
"We are aware of the matter and have been in contact with the club," the NFL said. "We have no further comment at this time."
Along with the physical assault, Miller also reportedly threw the woman's laptop on the ground before stepping on it. This proceeded Miller pulling by the hair, "ultimately pulling a chunk of hair out," the warrant wrote, per TMZ.
This season, Miller made his return from a torn ACL that cut his 2022 short. In eight games this season, he's posted two total tackles.
The Bills are currently on their Week 13 bye before visiting the Kansas City Chiefs at Arrowhead in Week 14.
