Miami Dolphins running back Lamar Miller will play against the Buffalo Bills in Week 11 for Thursday Night Football. He suffered an AC joint injury to his shoulder in Week 9 and has missed practice this week.
Lamar Miller is active for Thursday in a subpar fantasy matchup
Lamar Miller will play against the Bills. We break down the fantasy implications.


The Dolphins are concerned with Miller and even signed running back LaMichael James as insurance. Earlier this week, Miller's status was in doubt, but he's felt better leading up to this huge divisional matchup with major playoff implications.
Teams have proceeded with caution on Thursday Night Football, so it wouldn’t be a surprise to see Miller get limited touches. On top of that, the Bills are one of the best defenses in the NFL, ranking as the third-toughest defense against fantasy running backs.
If the Dolphins do limit Miller's touches, Damien Williams will likely get some extra work while Daniel Thomas may also get short-yardage chances.
Fantasy impact: There are just too many question marks here. Unless you’re desperate, Miller should be on the bench this week despite how he’s flirting with RB1 status on the season.
