Miller reflects on injury, road to recovery

Speaking publicly for the first time about the devastating injury that nearly cost him his left leg, an emotional Zach Miller discussed the traumatic experience and the worldwide support he's received in a video interview with the Chicago Bears Network's Jeff Joniak.

Playing against the Saints Oct. 29 in New Orleans, Miller suffered a dislocated knee and torn popliteal artery while catching an apparent 25-yard touchdown pass from Mitchell Trubisky that was later reversed to an incomplete pass following a replay review.

"I knew it was pretty severe, but I wasn't in pain," Miller told Joniak during an interview at the tight end's north suburban home.
