Bills, All-Pro LB Matt Milano reach two-year extension

BUFFALO, N.Y. -- The Bills made a move for now and the future, locking down All-Pro linebacker Matt Milano with a two-year contract extension through the 2026 season, the team announced on Sunday.

The move also helps the Bills by creating approximately $6 million in cap space, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter. The team entered the weekend $19 million over the 2023 cap. Defensive tackle Tim Settle's contract was restructured to open up $600,000 space as well, ESPN's Field Yates reported.

Milano, 28, was previously under contract through the 2024 season on a contract extension reached just before the linebacker potentially reaching free agency in 2021.
