Analysis: One of Miller’s biggest issues last season in fantasy was his frustrating lack of targets in the red zone. His touchdown Sunday is hopefully a good sign that the Steelers are refocusing on the veteran tight end near the end zone instead of leaving him by the wayside. He seems geared for the role more so than any of the Steelers’ other pass catchers. Definitely wait on Miller to make sure that his big night isn’t an outlier, but so far so good.
