Why Buffalo Bills could lose valuable linebacker Matt Milano in free agency

BUFFALO, N.Y. -- Sometimes you can do everything correctly and still come up short; let the Buffalo Bills' upcoming situation with Matt Milano be a potential reminder.

Buffalo drafted Milano in the fifth round in 2017 out of Boston College, where the former safety had converted to linebacker as a sophomore. He thrived within the Bills' defense, carving a firm role as the team's best coverage linebacker.

He will be a free agent this offseason, however, and although re-signing him would be a no-brainer for the Bills in most offseasons -- this is not most offseasons.
