Wide Receiver Braxton Miller

One of the more surprising moves on Saturday was the Houston Texans decision to release wide receiver Braxton Miller.

Although he did not hit the field as often as the Texans would have wanted, Miller was able to make plays when he was on the field.

In two seasons, the 25-year-old wide receiver has caught 34 passes for 261 yards and two touchdowns. Playing behind DeAndre Hopkins and Will Fuller, the Texans may not have wanted to wait to see what Miller could develop into.

Miller is still very athletic and can make plays with the ball in his hands. The key for Miller is honing his skills as a receiver to get more opportunities to get the ball in his hands. For his size, Miller is best suited playing in the slot.

The Browns will be looking at receivers on the waiver wire, and Mller looks like the best option available. With a wide receivers coach like Adam Henry, Miller could have a better chance developing into a solid receiver in Cleveland.

Miller’s athleticism will get him a lot of looks from NFL teams. If the Browns want to add another receiver that has some potential, Miller should get a long look.
