Miami Dolphins running back Lamar Miller is listed as probable for his team's Week 7 battle with the Chicago Bears
Lamar Miller injury update: Dolphins feature back ready to carry fantasy backfields
Lamar Miller was limited in practice all week, but is expected to start on Sunday versus the Chicago Bears. We break down the fantasy implications.

Miller aggravated his knee versus the Green Bay Packers, but will need to be ready for a heavy workload now that his backfield counterpart Knowshon Moreno is out for the season with a knee injury of his own. Miller remained limited in practice throughout the week, but it's likely the result of the team wanting to keep their bell-cow runner fresh. He is in no danger of being limited on Sunday.
Fantasy Spin: Though there shouldn’t be any concern with Miller’s health, although the game script that comes with playing the Chicago Bears’ potent offense could mean the Dolphins run less than desired. That said, Miller should still be fed the ball early and often, and he remains the beneficiary of ever-important goal-line touches. Lock Miller in as a borderline RB1 this week in this middle of the road matchup.
