Miller has started eight games this season for Jacksonville, compiling 79 total tackles (52 solos) and four tackles for loss. He entered the season as a backup but was thrust into the starting lineup when Foye Oluokun went down with a foot injury in Week 3, placed on injured reserve.
When Oluokun returned several weeks later, Miller continued as a key rotational piece alongside the veteran and LB Devin Lloyd .
Miller was drafted in the fourth round of the 2023 NFL Draft out of Florida. He missed all of last season due to a ruptured Achilles.
Miller is the third player to leave the game for Jacksonville. Left tackle Walker Little (ankle) and safety Darnell Savage (concussion protocol) also sustained injuries during the first half and had not returned to the game as of the two-minute warning.
