Miles: Boyer Will Be 'Big' for the Jets

In just three seasons, Rontez Miles has emerged from a practice squad performer to a special teams leader. New Jets coordinator Brant Boyer wants his veterans to help deliver the message and he has already sought out Miles.

“He came to me and told me to keep everybody going, keep everyone on their toes and take charge,” said Miles of Boyer.

Boyer described Miles as an “energizer bunny,” whose exuberant personality stretches on and off the field. Miles sees a lot of jump from his new coach, a man who played 10 years in the NFL and served as a special teams captain for the Jaguars and the Browns.
