Ventrell Miller
Guess who’s back?
Back again?
Miller’s back.
Tell a friend.
The sixth year senior out of Lakeland High returns after missing the majority of last season due to a torn bicep.
Miller was seen as a NFL prospect heading into last season and hopes to regain his form and be a leader for the Florida linebackers.
Listed at 6-0, 221 pounds, Miller is noted for his ability to play above his weight and for his lateral quickness. He isn’t afraid to fight through contact and will deliver the big hit when warranted.
Pure 40 speed could be better and there are times his tackling could improve, but if Miller can regain form that made him Florida’s leading tackler in 2020, the Gators should have a solid veteran presence in the box all season long.
