The Tampa Bay Times reports there have been "no substantive contract talks" between the Bucs and free agent DT Roy Miller.

Miller was a 14-game starter for the Bucs' No. 1 run defense last season, but graded out poorly in Pro Football Focus' ratings. The 2009 third-round pick came off the bench in 2011 after starting all 16 games in 2010. Miller is a no-nonsense player, but comes off the field in passing situations. Coach Greg Schiano could be looking for "his guy" at nose tackle this offseason.

Bucs declared DT Roy Miller (head) inactive for Sunday's Week 14 game against the Eagles.

The rest of the Bucs' inactives: CB LeQuan Lewis, RB Michael Smith, LB Najee Goode, WR David Douglas, WR David Gilreath and DT Matthew Masifilo.

Bucs DT Roy Miller has yet to practice this week after sustaining a head injury in Week 13.

The Bucs won't confirm that Miller was concussed, but he is being evaluated according to the NFL's guidelines for head injuries. Miller is a run-stuffing specialist on a defense allowing a league-best 82.3 rushing yards per game. His absence Sunday would be welcome news for Bryce Brown's fantasy owners.

Bucs DT Roy Miller is listed as questionable for Week 6 due to a back injury.

Coach Greg Schiano described it as a "muscle spasm" that caused Miller to miss Thursday's practice, although he returned on a limited basis Friday. Miller has been a key early-down stuffer for Tampa Bay's surprisingly stout run defense. His Week 6 absence would improve Jamaal Charles' matchup.
