Miller was coming off of a 2020 season in which he led the team in tackles with 88 and added on 3.5 sacks and 7.5 tackles-for-loss. In 2 games of the 2021 season, Miller led the team with 7 total tackles (2 solo) against Florida Atlantic. He recorded a solo tackle in UF’s Week 2 win over USF.
A redshirt senior, Miller is in his fifth year at Florida. The NCAA’s COVID eligibility waiver for the 2020 season opens the door for Miller to potentially return for a sixth season with the Gators.
