Miller hasn’t done as many interviews with the local media as he had before getting hurt, but I don’t see any issue with that. You probably saw the story of him bringing a replica of the Lombardi Trophy to the Bills’ locker room. He’s around and he’s leading the best he can without being able to play.’
