PITTSFORD, N.Y. (AP) — The Buffalo Bills have suspended offensive line coach Aaron Kromer without pay for the first six games of the regular season for violating the NFL's personal conduct policy.

The suspension was announced by Bills president Russ Brandon on Sunday night. The disciplinary action comes two days after prosecutors in Florida dropped a battery charge against Kromer for allegedly punching a boy in the face for using his beach chairs last month.

The Bills placed Kromer on paid leave on July 14, two days after he was arrested. Kromer, however, will rejoin the team at training camp.

Russ Brandon, president of the Bills, released a statement late Sunday night.

His suspension will begin Sept. 7, in the week leading up to the Bills' regular-season opener against Indianapolis. The suspension will run through Buffalo's game against Cincinnati on Oct. 18.
