Buffalo Bills linebacker Matt Milano was named a first-team, All-Pro player for the 2022 NFL season.
The Associated Press released the results of their votes on Friday ahead of the Bills’ Wild-Card weekend matchup against the Miami Dolphins (9-8).
In 2022, Milano appeared in 15 of 16 total games for the Bills (13-3) after their canceled contest against the Cincinnati Bengals. Milano totaled 99 tackles, including 12 for loss, 1.5 sacks, and three interceptions.
Milano, 28, earns the honor for the first time in his career.
Ironically, he goes the way of safety Jordan Poyer as well.
Last season, Poyer was named a first-teamer on the AP All-Pro list. That, after Poyer was not named to the Pro Bowl.
Likewise, Milano was not named a Pro Bowler this season but earned the AP honor nonetheless.
In addition to Milano, receiver Stefon Diggs was named a second-team All-Pro player.
