Miller rushed 11 times for 41 yards and caught all three of his targets for 12 yards in Thursday's 42-10 preseason win over New England.
EDGE Analysis
Miller was handed an opportunity to showcase his skills in New York's final exhibition, as he logged 48 percent of the team's offensive snaps and handled more carries than the Giants' other running backs combined. The results were mixed for Miller -- while he led New York with 41 rushing yards, he averaged just 3.7 yards per carry, and his longest run went for a modest eight yards. However, Miller's most impressive work during the preseason has been as a receiver out of the backfield, as he nabbed all 14 of this targets for 135 yards over the Giants' three games. Tyrone Tracy is locked in as New York's RB1, with Devin Singletary and Cam Skattebo slated to handle the bulk of the backup work. That leaves Miller battling with Eric Gray (undisclosed) for one of the team's final roster spots. Gray didn't play in any preseason contests, as he's been on the active/PUP list throughout training camp. Ryan Dunleavy of the New York Post projects Miller to make New York's initial 53-man roster with Gray potentially remaining on the PUP list when the regular season kicks off.

Miller rushed five times for 17 yards in Saturday's 31-12 exhibition win over the Jets. He added four catches on four targets for 43 yards.
EDGE Analysis
Miller finished second on New York in rushing yards and third in receiving yards. He's found tough sledding on the ground through two preseason games, averaging a meager 2.6 yards on 10 carries, but has been quite impressive in the passing game, tallying 11 receptions on 11 targets for 123 yards. Tyrone Tracy, Devin Singletary and Cam Skattebo (hamstring) are likely locked in as New York's top three running backs, but Miller has a path to a roster spot as RB4, especially with Eric Gray (undisclosed) still on the PUP list and yet to participate in training camp.

Miller received team recognition as the Giants' offensive player of the game following Saturday's preseason win over the Bills, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports. The running back finished the contest with 10 carries for 22 yards and seven receptions on seven targets for 80 yards.
EDGE Analysis
New York's running game was mostly stifled in the matchup, so though Miller logged only 22 yards on the ground, that was second-most on the team behind Jaxson Dart's 24 yards. Where Miller really shined, though, was in the passing game -- he led New York in both receptions and receiving yards while constantly picking up extra yards after catches. Miller also got the bulk of work out of the backfield for the team, logging 41 offensive snaps while No. 1 RB Tyrone Tracy got just five and backup Devin Singletary notched 12. It's worth noting that rookie Cam Skattebo (hamstring) didn't suit up, but he's almost certainly ahead of Miller on the depth chart as well. That said, Miller is a viable contender for No. 4 RB duties, especially with Eric Gray (undisclosed) still on the PUP list and far from a lock to make the final roster.

Miller (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Eagles, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Miller was elevated from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, but the undrafted free agent out of South Carolina will not play in Sunday's regular-season finale as the Giants roll with a three-man backfield of rookie Tyrone Tracy, Devin Singletary and Eric Gray. Miller was elevated to the 53-man roster for Week 5 and 6 and played eight snaps (one on offense, seven on special teams) across the two games, but otherwise did not show up on the box score.

The Giants signed Miller from their practice squad to their active roster Saturday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Miller has spent the majority of the season on New York's practice squad, though he did get two elevations during the campaign. In those games, he recorded a combined seven snaps on special teams and one snap on offense. Miller could get a bit more opportunity Sunday against Philadelphia with the Giants having nothing to play for except draft-pick slotting, but he's still expected to be fourth on the running-back depth chart behind Tyrone Tracy, Devin Singletary and Eric Gray.

Miller reverted to the Giants' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
EDGE Analysis
The running back was elevated to the active roster for the second straight game due to Devin Singletary's groin injury. Miller, though, did not play an offensive snap in New York's 17-7 loss to Cincinnati. He did play on seven special-teams snaps and assist on a tackle on punt coverage.

Miller was elevated to the Giants' active roster Saturday, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.
EDGE Analysis
Miller will be on the active roster for the second consecutive week, as Devin Singletary (groin) was ruled out again. Miller played only one offensive snap in Week 5 and will likely play a minimal role once again in Week 6.

Miller reverted to the Giants' practice squad Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Miller was elevated to help the backfield depth with Devin Singletary (groin) inactive. However, the South Carolina product saw just one snap on offense and didn't run the ball, while Tyrone Tracy and Eric Gray handled the rest of the work.

The Giants elevated Miller from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Devin Singletary (groin) is doubtful to play Sunday against the Seahawks, so the Giants will bring up Miller to provide insurance in the backfield behind Tyrone Tracy and Eric Gray. Miller opted to stick around with Big Blue on the practice squad after failing to make the 53-man roster at the end of training camp.

Miller signed with the Giants' practice squad Wednesday, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Miller failed to make the Giants' 53-man roster, but he's now been brought back as a practice squad player. The South Carolina product impressed during the preseason, rushing for 63 yards on 12 carries in just one game before sustaining a hamstring injury.
