Pass rusher Von Miller exited the game and was taken to the locker room via cart with a knee injury. The Bills announced shortly after that Miller is out for the remainder of the game.

The injury occurred late in the second quarter when it appeared Miller twisted his leg on a play before that same leg was landed on by an offensive lineman.

Miller was evaluated by the training staff under the blue tent on the sideline before he was put on a cart and exited the field.

Miller, who was the Bills’ big offseason acquisition, entered Thursday’s game with eight sacks, 17 tackles and a forced fumble this season.

Miller’s friend and former teammate, Odell Beckham Jr., also sounded off on Twitter following the injury, criticizing the turf fields.
