What It Means:

Miller, Mike Evans (ankle), and Chris Godwin (hamstring) are all dealing with nagging injuries. “They’re hurting,” Arians said, “they’re playing, but they’re nowhere near full speed. I think we can get better and better. ... Offensively we’ve been struggling all year with injuries. I wanna be able to make that playoff push with whoever’s available.” Miller estimated that he was at about 85 percent before Sunday's game against the Las Vegas Raiders when he recorded a career-high 109 yards with a touchdown on 6 receptions (9 targets). Godwin fractured his index finger in that game and has been ruled out for Week 8 versus the New York Giants on Monday night, but Miller actually has better splits this season when Godwin doesn't play.

Miller is the WR39 in numberFire's Week 8 fantasy rankings. Our models expect him to draw 6.5 targets and score 8.9 FanDuel points with a salary of $5,600. The Giants have the No. 28 pass defense in numberFire's advanced team rankings. Miller is averaging 4.6 targets per game and the 10th-most yards per reception (16.6) in the league. He also has the fourth-highest average depth of target (17.4 yards) among any player with at least 20 targets this season.
