HOUSTON -- At the end of the 2017 season, Lamar Miller stood in the middle of the Houston Texans' locker room and vowed to take a step forward during the offseason after the worst year of his NFL career.
Last year, Miller's second with the Texans, he averaged just 3.7 yards per carry, which ranked tied for 33rd in the NFL. So during the offseason, he focused on losing some weight and becoming a more decisive runner.
Just 27 and in his seventh NFL season, Miller spent time training during the offseason with fellow former University of Miami standout Frank Gore, who is a perhaps a future Hall of Fame running back.
