Miller averages 3.64 yards after contact and averaged 7.2 yards per carry
Outrageous numbers for Miller, averaging almost four yards AFTER contact. Miller is an angry runner and loves to find contact and run through it.
Miller added a ton of awards in 2022
- 2022 First-Team All-Big 12
- 2022 Associated Press First-Team All-Big 12
- 2022 Doak Walker Award Semifinalist
- 2022 Earl Campbell Tyler Rose Award Semifinalist
Miller wears a size 14 shoe
The 5-11 running back wears a size 14 shoe. His feet size reflects the way he runs because he runs angry. It helps explain how Kendre Miller had a 95th percentile in explosive run rate in college.
Miller is from Texas
Miller won't have to travel far, he was born and raised in Texas, played his high school and college ball in Texas. He now will play his pro ball in Louisiana.
