★ First-team All-Missouri Valley Football Conference at right tackle (2024)

★ Two-time FCS national champion with North Dakota State

★ 42 career starts across 61 games at NDSU

Path to the league

Miller played five seasons at North Dakota State (2020-2024), starting 42 of his 61 career games at both right tackle and left guard. He capped his college career as an All-American and first-team All-Missouri Valley Football Conference selection at right tackle, helping the Bison win a national title with a 35-32 win over Montana State.

Career highlights

Miller leaves NDSU as a two-time national champion and one of the program's most experienced offensive linemen of his era. His size and versatility across the line made him an appealing undrafted signing for Detroit, which also employs former NDSU offensive coordinator Tyler Roehl on its coaching staff.

2025 season recap

Miller signed with the Lions as an undrafted free agent after the 2025 draft and saw extensive preseason snaps, averaging around 30 per game across four exhibition contests, working at right tackle in the first two and right guard in the final two. He was among Detroit's roster cuts in late August but was signed to the practice squad, where he spent his rookie season developing.
