Jackson State LB Aubrey Miller Jr. hopes to follow path set by Lions' James Houston

Mobile, Ala. — Just a few months after Detroit Lions rookie James Houston took the NFL by storm, there's another Jackson State prospect looking to make a similar impact.

His name is Aubrey Miller Jr., and he's a participant at the Senior Bowl down in Mobile, Alabama this week.

He, like Houston, started his college career at an SEC school, playing three years at Missouri before transferring to the historically Black university, which participates in the Southwestern Athletic Conference. He, like Houston, has a pretty big chip on his shoulder, coming into draft season from a non-Power-5 school.
