Excerpts from an article by Crissy Froyd of Saints Wire on 8/14/24 as viewed at saintswire.usatoday.com
August 14th, 2014 - Kendre Miller - Number 25
Our countdown to kickoff marches on with just 25 days until the New Orleans Saints officially kick off the 2024 season. In honor of that, we’re taking a deeper look at running back Kendre Miller, who wears the No. 25 jersey for the squad.
Here’s everything to know about Miller, who is at the center of one of the Saints’ preseason position battles to watch:
Miller was riddled by injuries throughout his rookie season, but still managed to be a force of the New Orleans backfield in the regular season finale. He saw action in 8 games, tallying 156 rushing yards and a single touchdown on 41 attempts. He showed versatility, as is so in demand for running backs in the modern era, catching 10 passes for 117 yards in that same season.
The 2024 preseason hasn’t gotten off to the best start for Miller so far after he was forced to sit out of the opener against the Arizona Cardinals with a hamstring injury. He’s been sidelined since the first day of training camp.
Miller must heal up so he can take utmost advantage of the remainder of the preseason, starting with Sunday’s matchup against the San Francisco 49ers.
