Giants Waive Wide Receiver Ryan Miller

The move reflects how a crowded receiver room and limited special-teams experience can leave an undrafted position-switch player without a roster spot.

Overview

  • Multiple outlets reported Monday that the New York Giants have waived wide receiver Ryan Miller, making him a free agent during preseason roster cutdowns.
  • Miller was claimed from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in December 2025 and re-signed to a one-year deal this offseason after starting six games for Tampa Bay over the past two seasons.
  • He converted from tight end to wide receiver after running a 4.52-second 40 at Furman, where he was a three-time FCS All-American and set the school record with 28 touchdown catches.
  • Giants coaches described Miller as healthy but said he mostly took third-team reps in camp, was targeted once with no catches in the recent preseason game, and lacked a clear special-teams role.
  • His release underscores the narrow margins for undrafted players who change positions and suggests Miller will look for another team that needs slot depth or contested-catch ability on short notice.
