BREAKING: Montre Miller Ruled Out for Remainder of Season
West Virginia head football coach Neal Brown told reporters Monday afternoon that senior cornerback Montre Miller will not return this season due to an undisclosed injury.
'He's going to have surgery and he's going to miss the remainder of the year. He's going to have to seek an appeal," Brown said about returning next year. "We'll have to seek a waiver on that and I think he's got a good case, but those things go to a committee, so it's hard to tell."
Miller recorded three tackles in the loss to Penn State in a rotational role. Although he didn't start the game, Miller was expected to be a key contributor in the back end this season. Pro Football Focus had him rated as the fifth-best cornerback in the Big 12 behind only T.J. Tampa (Iowa State), Josh Newton (TCU), Eddie Heckard (BYU), and Malik Fleming (Houston).
Miller spent four seasons at Kent State and developed into a quality starter for the Golden Flashes over the past two seasons, recording a combined 100 tackles, three sacks, six interceptions, and 16 pass breakups while earning 2021 PFN’s First Team All-MAC honors.
