Overview

  • Miller was injured in the final minute of the Week 4 loss to the Bears and was carted off after staying down on the field.
  • Further testing revealed the combined ankle injuries, and multiple outlets report Las Vegas is moving him to injured reserve under the four-game minimum absence rule.
  • Head coach Pete Carroll identified veteran Stone Forsythe as the first option at left tackle, with rookie Charles Grant set to compete for playing time.
  • The setback comes just after the offensive line’s best outing of the season, with zero sacks allowed and 240 rushing yards against Chicago.
  • Miller, who signed a three-year, $66 million extension in July, has been one of the NFL’s top-graded tackles this year by Pro Football Focus, making his absence a significant blow against upcoming strong defensive fronts.
