Player Outlook
The Saints clearly targeted Miller and it was easy to see why if you watched the Cinderella story that was the TCU Horned Frogs in 2022. Miller was the lifeblood of that offense and his absence was felt when he had to miss time. Miller has a complete three-down profile and could evolve into one of the better receiving options at the RB position. He also forces missed tackles and creates yards after contact at rates that are wise to bet on. Miller makes for a high-upside dart throw in the Round 14 range, and he could have value out the gate as a result of Alvin Kamara's three-game suspension. Miller is a nice target in the second round of your rookie-only drafts.

  • Saints' Kendre Miller: Will miss fourth straight game

    Miller (ankle) is listed as out for Sunday's game against the Panthers. Miller will be sidelined for a fourth consecutive game after he failed to practice in any fashion this week while he works back from an ankle sprain. According to Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com, head coach Dennis Allen said Friday that Miller has made significant strides in his rehab but has "kind of stalled a little bit." The slower progression in Miller's recovery from the ankle sprain than anticipated likely explains why the Saints didn't initially place the rookie on injured reserve when he suffered the injury in a Week 9 win over the Bears. His continued absence will once again Sunday will leave Jamaal Williams unchallenged for the No. 2 role at running back behind starter Alvin Kamara.

  • Saints' Kendre Miller: Logs another DNP

    Miller (ankle) did not participate in Thursday's practice. The rookie running back out of TCU has been held out since Week 10, and it seems as if he's still recovering from his ankle issue. Miller has appeared in seven games for the Saints thus far, recording 83 rushing yards on 28 attempts. He'll almost certainly carry an injury designation into the weekend unless he's able to record a full practice session Friday.

  • Saints' Kendre Miller: Continues to deal with injury

    Miller (ankle) was a non-participant during practice Wednesday, Brooke Kirchhofer of NewOrleans.football reports. Miller hasn't played or practiced since suffering a sprained ankle in the Saints' Week 9 win over the Bears. Considering the amount of time the rookie has missed, he'll likely need to get back on the field as a full participant by Friday in order to have a chance at playing Sunday against the Panthers.

  • Saints' Kendre Miller: Still not practicing

    Miller (ankle) didn't practice Wednesday, Matthew Paras of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports. Miller hasn't practiced or played in a game since spraining his ankle Week 9 against the Bears. Even if he gets healthy within the next week or two, he'll have a hard time earning touches in an offense that also employs Alvin Kamara, Jamaal Williams and Taysom Hill.

  • Saints' Kendre Miller: Idle for Thursday's practice

    Miller (ankle) isn't participating in Thursday's practice, Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football reports. Miller appears to be trending in the wrong direction for Sunday's game against the Vikings; he's now been out of commission for the Saints' first two Week 10 practices. Even when healthy, Miller has been handling only a light role of late following Jamaal Williams' return from injured reserve Week 7. Over the ensuing three games, Miller has served as the clear No. 3 back behind Alvin Kamara and Williams, playing single-digit snaps on offense in each of those contests while carrying just four times for 10 yards and adding two receptions for 40 yards.

  • Saints' Kendre Miller: Misses practice Wednesday

    Miller (ankle) didn't practice Wednesday. Miller made an early departure from this past Sunday's win against the Bears and eventually was diagnosed with a sprained ankle. The severity of the issue hasn't been revealed, but it isn't a great sign for the rookie third-round pick that he's kicking off Week 10 prep with an absence. Miller's status will be monitored as the weekend approaches to see if he has a chance to suit up Sunday at Minnesota.

  • Saints' Kendre Miller: Suffers ankle injury Sunday

    Miller injured his ankle during Sunday's game against the Bears. MIller had two touches prior to his exit in the fourth quarter: a 31-yard catch and a carry for no yards. He got hurt on the second one and visited the medical tent before the Saints reported the injury. If Miller sticks on the sideline, New Orleans will have Alvin Kamara and Jamaal Williams on hand out of its backfield.

  • Saints' Kendre Miller: Reps capped by shoulder injury

    Miller was tending to shoulder soreness prior to Thursday's game versus Jacksonville, Brooke Kirchhofer of NOF Network reports. Miller played just three offensive snaps in New Orleans' loss versus the Jaguars in Week 7, and that he was nursing an injury may at least partially explain why. Barring a setback, he should see more playing time Sunday at Indianapolis, but that still doesn't mean he'll be a reliable fantasy contributor.

  • Saints' Kendre Miller: Nonfactor as RB3

    Miller had zero carries during Thursday's 31-24 loss against the Jaguars. Miller played a season-low three offensive snaps behind veteran running backs Alvin Kamara (66) and Jamaal Williams (20), as the latter rejoined the Saints backfield after sitting out the last four games on IR with a hamstring injury. The rookie out of TCU also did not line up on special teams at all, and all 68 of his snaps this season have come on offense. Miller's only significant production came when both Kamara and Williams were sidelined Week 3 and when the Saints blew out the Patriots, 34-0, in Week 5. So long as Kamara and Williams are available, expect Miller to continue to have a limited impact moving forward.

  • Saints' Kendre Miller: Minimal usage in loss

    Miller recorded two rushes for minus-1 yard and caught one of two targets for 13 yards during Sunday's 20-13 loss to the Texans. For the second week in a row, Miller was the only Saints running back to see any playing time behind starter Alvin Kamara. However, the rookie backup played sparingly this week (18 offensive snaps) compared to when he totaled 90 yards in the Week 5 blowout versus New Orleans. In four games this season, Miller has only received notable playing time during the 34-0 win versus the Patriots and the Week 3 loss to Green Bay, as both Kamara (suspension) and No. 2 running back Jamaal Williams (hamstring) were unavailable. Miller's role only figures to decrease once Williams is activated from injured reserve, which could come ahead of Thursday's game against the Jaguars.

  • Saints' Kendre Miller: Tallies 90 yards in win

    Miller compiled 12 carries for 37 yards and hauled in all four targets for 53 yards during Sunday's 34-0 victory against the Patriots. Miller logged nine carries and two receptions during the second half of the blowout win for New Orleans. The rookie out of TCU saw some solid usage in the first half while spelling No. 1 running back Alvin Kamara, who tallied 22 carries for 80 yards and a touchdown. Miller's biggest highlight came in the second quarter when he caught a swing pass in the flat before running around a couple of defenders for a 33-yard gain. That also marked the Saints' longest play from scrimmage and allowed Miller to finish with the team's second-most receiving yards behind wideout Michael Thomas (65). The rookie 220-pound running back has now tallied 22 carries for 74 yards and six receptions for 58 yards since making his professional debut Week 3. With veteran Jamaal Williams (hamstring) stuck on IR until at least Week 7, expect Miller to continue serving as New Orleans' RB2 versus the Texans on Sunday, Oct. 15.

  • Saints' Kendre Miller: Stashes (RB Preview)

    The Saints didn't hold back at all on 28-year-old Alvin Kamara in his first game back. With Jamaal Williams on IR, Miller is the next man up if Kamara struggles with this workload or suffers an injury.

  • Saints' Kendre Miller: Week 4 Adds (RB Preview)

    The waiver wire is thin this late in the week, but I would still expect close to 10 touches for Kendre Miller in Alvin Kamara's return. That's about as good as you're going to find. Miller is also a great stash candidate with Jamaal Williams on IR.

  • Saints' Kendre Miller: Stashes (RB Preview)

    With Alvin Kamara back, we expect Miller to work his way into the RB2 role, which should mean 5-10 touches per week as long as the 28-year-old back is healthy. But there's real injury risk for Kamara, and Miller should see a bigger role than Tony Jones if the star goes down.

  • Saints' Kendre Miller: Week 4 Waiver Priority List

    I want to stash Miller on my bench as the handcuff for Alvin Kamara, who is returning from his three-game suspension in Week 4. Miller made his NFL debut in Week 3 at Green Bay, and the rookie from TCU didn't do much with nine carries for 34 yards and one catch for no yards on one target. But he has plenty of upside should he get a bigger role moving forward, and he could be a lottery ticket if something were to happen to Kamara. Add him where available for 1 percent of your FAB.

  • Saints' Kendre Miller: Logs nine carries in debut

    Miller tallied nine carries for 34 yards and gathered in his only target for zero yards during Sunday's 18-17 defeat versus Green Bay. Miller was the second running back on the field for New Orleans during his NFL debut Sunday. After veteran Tony Jones logged the first rushing attempt on the opening drive, the third-round rookie logged three carries on the Saints' second offensive series; however, as was the case for most of the game, he never managed to make any significant impact. Miller wound up getting just two carries in the second half while Jones saw four rushing attempts. The pair totaled just 65 yards on 17 combined carries while swiss-army-knife Taysom Hill logged four carries of his own. With Alvin Kamara set to return from suspension Week 4 and Jamaal Williams (hamstring) still on IR until at least Week 7, Miller should slot in as New Orleans' RB2 for the next three games.

  • Saints' Kendre Miller: Pro debut on tap Sunday

    Miller will have a role out of the Saints backfield Sunday in Green Bay with Jamaal Williams (hamstring) ruled out for the game, Stacey Dales of NFL Network reports. A 2023 third-round pick, Miller's pro debut has been delayed by a hamstring injury that has followed him since at least Aug. 31, causing him to miss the first two contests of the season. With a trio of full practices under his belt this week, though, he's been cleared for game action. Miller and Tony Jones (12-34-2 rushing line Week 2) should serve as the focal points at running back for New Orleans on Sunday, with Kirk Merritt and/or Jordan Mims candidates to be elevated from the practice squad. Alvin Kamara's three-game suspension ends after this weekend, so Miller's workload Week 4 and beyond may depend on Williams' recovery.

  • Saints' Kendre Miller: Stashes (RB Preview)

    Miller is expected to make his debut this week in a timeshare with Tony Jones. Of course, Alvin Kamara returns from suspension in Week 4. With Jamaal Williams' injury, Miller should slot in as the No. 2 in this offense behind the 28-year-old Kamara.

  • Saints' Kendre Miller: Sleepers (Start/Sit)

    Jamaal Williams (hamstring) isn't expected to play in Week 3 at Green Bay, but Miller should make his NFL debut. The rookie from TCU missed the first two weeks of the season with a hamstring injury, but Miller is now looking at a potential workhorse role with Williams hurt and Alvin Kamara still suspended for one more game. Most likely, Miller will work in a committee with Tony Jones and Taysom Hill, but there's a lot of upside if Miller gets the majority of snaps against the Packers, who are No. 4 in most Fantasy points allowed to running backs. It's risky to trust Miller in his first NFL outing, but I like him as a flex in this matchup.

  • Saints' Kendre Miller: Listed as full participant

    The Saints listed Miller (hamstring) as a full participant at Wednesday's walk-through practice, Luke Johnson of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports. Miller could easily show up as a limited participant Thursday or Friday if the Saints hold a proper practice on one of those days, but head coach Dennis Allen told John Hendrix of SI.com on Tuesday that the rookie running back would be "full go" during Week 3 prep. Thus, Miller's listing Wednesday is a good enough sign that he's closing in on his professional debut, especially considering that Alvin Kamara has one game left to serve for his suspension and Jamaal Williams may miss some time due to a hamstring injury. Ultimately, Friday's injury report will determine whether or not Miller has a designation ahead of Sunday's visit to Green Bay.
