Kendre Miller Trending In The Wrong Direction

11 months ago

New Orleans Saints rookie running back Kendre Miller (ankle), who is listed as questionable to play in Week 17 on Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in a big divisional matchup, is trending in the wrong direction to play, according to a source. Miller's injury is lingering and bothered him during Friday's practice, and head coach Dennis Allen said Miller will be a game-time decision on Sunday. The 21-year-old rookie has not played at all since spraining his ankle in Week 9, and the Saints aren't going to rush him back if he's not ready. All signs point to him missing a seventh straight game. Workhorse back Alvin Kamara (illness) is questionable to play while being sick, so Jamaal Williams and Taysom Hill could be in for bigger rushing workloads in Week 17 if Kamara is still feeling under the weather on Sunday.
