Miami Dolphins running back Lamar Miller (knee) is listed as probable and will play in the team's Week 7 match up against the Chicago Bears. Miller was limited in practice on Thursday and Friday but was never in real danger of missing any time.
Lamar Miller injury update: RB probable, will be available for fantasy owners
Miami Dolphins running back Lamar Miller is listed as probable for Week 7. We break down the fantasy implications.

Fantasy Impact: Miller has been one of the more under-appreciated RB2s of 2014. Although he has never carried the ball more than 15 times in a game, Miller has four touchdowns and 330 yards rushing (a healthy 5.2 YCP) through five games. That rate puts him on pace for his first 1,000-yard season and over 12 touchdowns. The biggest obstacle for Miller’s fantasy value has always been the looming threat of Knowshon Moreno. With Moreno now out of the picture for the rest of the season (torn ACL), Miller has an outside shot at finishing the year in the top-10 as the team’s new feature back. Taking on the Chicago Bears and their mediocre run defense, Miller has a shot to make some noise. He’s a borderline RB1 for Week 7.
