The Buffalo Bills initially made a surprise move in signing DT Zion Logue off the Atlanta Falcons practice squad on Tuesday. Since he came from the practice squad, he could only be signed to the active roster. While that move was puzzling, it all made sense later when the league handed down its final decision on Von Miller. He has been suspended for four games stemming from his domestic violence arrest in November 2023.
Logue is a sixth-round draft pick out of Georgia from the 2024 NFL draft. Coming from a championship program with Georgia, winning two national championships, the hope is that Logue can help provide depth on a defensive line to help stymie the run game which has at times become porous.
Below is Zion Logue’s publicly reported injury history and analysis.

Injury Analysis
Missing only one game over five seasons and playing in 50 total games during that timeframe is impressive. Unfortunately, details of those injuries are lacking, but this at least indicates that there aren’t any lingering issues or history of concerning injuries.
I do not expect Logue to see the field in Week 5 and may just serve as a depth option in the event of injury, but it appears the Bills may roll with several call-ups to account for Miller’s loss.
I wish Zion Logue the best of luck during his time with the Bills and that he can make his NFL debut and remain healthy.
