Miller (hamstring) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Chargers, John Hendrix of SI.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Miller went to the locker room in the second half shortly before the nature of the injury was revealed. The second-year pro had three carries for 16 yards prior to getting hurt. Miller missed the first six games of the season due to a hamstring injury.

Miller rushed six times for 36 yards and secured two of three targets for one yard in the Saints' 33-10 loss to the Broncos on Thursday night.

EDGE Analysis

The oft-injured 2023 third-round pick made his season debut following a long recovery from a hamstring injury sustained back in late July. Miller saw only two of his touches before the game was fully out of hand, but he looked good while gaining 25 of his rushing yards on back-to-back carries during the Saints' final drive. Now finally healthy, Miller could eventually start eating into Jamaal Williams' touches as the No. 2 running back, although the former will have to prove that consistent health is no longer elusive.

Miller (hamstring) is listed as active Thursday versus the Broncos.

EDGE Analysis

For the first time this season, Miller is available to the Saints offense after completing his recovery from a hamstring injury that he sustained early in training camp. Having said that, Alvin Kamara also is suiting up, which means he should be good for his typical workload of 22 touches per game. As a result, Miller likely will be hard-pressed to see much, if any, action behind Kamara and Jamaal Williams.

Miller (hamstring) wasn't listed on the Saints' estimate injury report Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Despite the Saints activating Miller from injured reserve Saturday, he was held out of Sunday's loss to the Buccaneers while Alvin Kamara assumed his normal workhorse role and Jamaal Williams and Jordan Mims mixed in behind him. Coach Dennis Allen told John Hendrix of SI.com earlier Monday that he expects Miller "being ready to go this week," and the second-year pro's lack of listing on the team's first Week 7 injury report implies as much. Kamara was listed as limited due to a hand issue Monday, but assuming he's able to suit up as usual Thursday versus the Broncos, Miller may not have much of a role out of the Saints backfield behind Kamara and Williams, assuming all three are active.

Coach Dennis Allen said Monday that he expects Miller (hamstring) to make his season debut Thursday against the Broncos, John Hendrix of SI.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Miller was activated off injured reserve Saturday but remained inactive for Sunday's loss to the Buccaneers. The 2023 third-round draft pick is expected to make his season debut Thursday, though official word on Miller's status won't come until later in the week. Once he's cleared to play, Miller will jostle with Jamaal Williams for backup touches behind Alvin Kamara.

Miller (hamstring) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, John Hendrix of SI.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Miller missed the first five weeks of the season with a hamstring issue and was activated off injured reserve Saturday. Even after turning in three full practices, however, he'll be inactive once again. Jamaal Williams will remain the top backup to Alvin Kamara against Tampa Bay as a result.

Miller (hamstring) was activated off injured reserve Saturday, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports. The second-year back still remains questionable for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers.

EDGE Analysis

Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football in a second report suggested Miller likely won't see a significant role right out of the gate, which makes sense given the young back's history of injuries throughout his career. Expect Alvin Kamara to be the main focal point on offense, with rookie quarterback Spencer Rattler making his first career start in replacement of the injured Derek Carr (oblique).

Miller (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, Matthew Paras of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

EDGE Analysis

Miller has been a full participant in each practice since last Friday, so if he's held out again this Sunday it might be a matter of not having a role more so than anything to do with his hamstring. The Saints will need to activate him from injured reserve by 4:00 p.m. ET on Saturday in order for Miller to have a chance to play against the Bucs on Sunday.

Miller (hamstring) logged a full walkthrough Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Despite being listed as full on the Saints' last two Week 5 injury reports and not being listed with a designation Saturday, the team downgraded him to doubtful Sunday and then ruled him out ahead of Monday's game at Kansas City. As of Wednesday, he's been uncapped in three straight sessions, but the team still has two weeks to make a decision to activate him from injured reserve, which will need to happen by Saturday at 4:00 p.m. ET in order for him to have a chance for his season debut Sunday versus the Buccaneers.

Miller (hamstring) won't suit up Monday against the Chiefs, Ross Jackson of LouisianaSports.net reports.

EDGE Analysis

This development isn't surprising considering Miller was previously considered doubtful. He returned to practice in the week leading up to Monday's game but remains on injured reserve due to a hamstring injury. Miller's next chance to play will be Sunday against the Buccaneers, and his return would be preceded by an official move activating the second-year running back from IR.
