In the mix for more snaps Miller is in line for a larger offensive role for as long as Travis Etienne (hamstring) is on injured reserve, John DeShazler of the Saints' official site reports.
Impact Etienne's placement on IR on Thursday comes after the star running back aggravated a hamstring injury during the Saints' Week 3 loss to the Raiders. With Etienne sidelined, Miller and Alvin Kamara figure to operate as the Saints' top running backs moving forward, with undrafted rookie CJ Donaldson also in the mix for backfield work. Miller has 13 carries for 44 yards (3.4 YPC) and a touchdown along with two catches (on three targets) for five yards through two regular-season games.

SEPTEMBER 28 • NEWORLEANSSAINTS.COM
Avoids injury designation for Week 3 Miller (illness) doesn't carry an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Raiders.
Impact Miller was under the weather Thursday, keeping him off the practice field. However, he was a full participant Friday. Miller was a healthy scratch for the 24-17 win over Baltimore in Week 2, meaning he is in danger of suffering the same fate versus Las Vegas. If that's the case, that would likely mean more work for Alvin Kamara and CJ Donaldson behind Travis Etienne.
SEPTEMBER 25 • ROTOWIRE
Sits out practice with illness Miller was a non-participant in Thursday's practice due to an illness, Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football reports.
Impact After being a healthy inactive Week 2 win over the Ravens while the Saints welcomed Alvin Kamara (knee) back from a one-game absence, Miller will now have to overcome an illness as he looks to re-enter the backfield mix Sunday versus the Raiders. Even if he makes a full recovery from the ailment, Miller may need No. 1 back Travis Etienne (hamstring) to sit out the Week 3 game in order to avoid another inactive status. Etienne has been limited in both of the Saints' practices this week, clouding his availability for Sunday.
SEPTEMBER 24 • ROTOWIRE
Healthy scratch in Week 2 Miller (coach's decision) is listed as inactive Sunday in Baltimore.
Impact Miller served as the No. 2 RB behind Travis Etienne in Week 1 with Alvin Kamara inactive due to a knee issue, but with Kamara back in action Sunday, Miller will be a healthy scratch. That leaves CJ Donaldson as the active third backfield option behind Etienne and Kamara in Week 2. Miller's next chance for game action is next Sunday against the Raiders.
SEPTEMBER 20 • ROTOWIRE
Finds end zone in Week 1 loss Miller turned nine carries into 30 yards and a touchdown while adding a 19-yard kickoff return during the Saints' 31-30 overtime loss to the Lions on Sunday.
Impact The Saints were kept off the board in the first half, but Miller helped get New Orleans on the board in the third quarter with an eight-yard touchdown run. In the absence of Alvin Kamara (knee), Miller played 29 of 90 offensive snaps (32.2 percent) and operated as the Saints' RB2 behind Travis Etienne (53 offensive snaps). Miller's role on offense would decrease drastically if Kamara was cleared to play against the Ravens in Week 2.

Back to practice Miller was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.
Impact Miller was dealing with an unknown issue, but the running back's uninhibited presence in practice should cleanse all doubts. The 24-year-old is set to be the No. 2 option behind Travis Etienne for the Saints' Week 1 matchup with the Saints.

Only dealing with minor issue Miller is believed to have sustained only a minor injury at Tuesday's practice, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.
Impact It's still not clear what type of injury Miller is dealing with, but it appears he avoided any sort of serious setback. It remains to be seen exactly how the backfield behind starter Travis Etienne will look in 1, but Miller has a chance to factor into the mix as long as he's available.
SEPTEMBER 2 • ROTOWIRE
Exits practice Tuesday Miller exited Tuesday's practice alongside trainers with an apparent injury, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
Impact There's been no indication Miller is dealing with a serious injury, but his departure leaves just Audric Estime as the lone healthy running back behind Travis Etienne, as Alvin Kamara is still recovering from a sprained MCL in his knee. A third-round pick in 2023, Miller has appeared in just 21 career regular-season games, rushing 127 times for 497 yards (3.9 YPC) and three touchdowns.
