This is the same scenario as Wednesday, as things appear to be a "go" for the former Pro-Bowl tight end this week. But because he is coming off of a torn ACL, Miller will likely be on a snap count and eased into action as fluidly as possible. David Paulson, who had been getting the usual snaps at tight end in Miller's absence, is in line to split the workload.
Fantasy Spin: Despite posting a career-year as well as the fourth-highest point total among tight ends in standard-scoring leagues last season, owners would be advised to keep Miller on the bench. He is a play that is only needed if owners are desperate, and with the depth at the position, it would hard to find that scenario at this phase of the season. Miller is absolutely worth a stash in the meantime, although an immediate return on the investment is not likely in the cards.
