Kendre Miller may not be a free agent for long. The former New Orleans Saints third-round draft pick is visiting the Dallas Cowboys on Tuesday, per ESPN's Todd Archer, which could give him an opportunity to play for his hometown team. Miller grew up in rural east Texas before playing college football at TCU, an hour across town from Cowboys headquarters at The Star.
Injuries cost Miller a lot of time in New Orleans; he was only able to play in 27 of the Saints' 58 games after they drafted him. He's a big back with real speed and a hard-nosed style, but he was just never able to put it all together when he was available between injuries. The team chose to move on after bringing back Audric Estime last week.
We'll see if Miller lands in Dallas or
continues to look for work elsewhere. He's only 24 years old and could very well find a successful second act for himself in the NFL. Just don't look for it to happen in New Orleans.
