Miller has been limited by a shoulder injury in recent weeks, although he did not miss a game. He had no setbacks in Week 10, playing on 34 of 67 offensive snaps in Thursday night's win over the Buffalo Bills. Miller finished with 86 rushing yards on 15 carries. He has 614 rushing yards and five touchdowns on the season, averaging 4.9 yards per carry.
Fantasy impact: With Miller fully healthy and getting 10 days of rest, the Dolphins should be done with their committee featuring Damian Williams and Daniel Thomas. Miller will probably go back to being an every-down back and carries solid RB2 value for the rest of the fantasy season. Miami will likely lean on Miller as it prepares for a playoff push. He should be starting in 12-team leagues, although the Broncos run defense isn't a friendly matchup.
