Who Should I Start? Pierre Strong Jr. or Dante Miller

Monday, September 8, 10:06 PM

The Green Bay Packers have signed running back Pierre Strong Jr. to their practice squad. The 26-year-old spent last season with the Cleveland Browns, totaling 108 rushing yards and 104 receiving yards. He also got involved on special teams, returning 11 kicks in 2024. Strong remained with the Browns organization until the end of August, when the team released him with an injury designation. He'll remain a mere depth option in Green Bay, especially since he's reporting to the practice squad. The former fourth-round pick provides additional insurance in case Josh Jacobs, Emanuel Wilson, or Chris Brooks gets hurt.

New York Giants running back Dante Miller finished with a team-high 102 total yards in a preseason-opening 34-25 win over the Buffalo Bills on Saturday. Miller did most of his damage through the air, catching all seven of his targets for 80 yards, and added 22 rushing yards on 10 carries. The 5-foot-9, 200-pounder went undrafted out of South Carolina in 2023 and is currently in his second season with the Giants organization. He appeared in two games with the team last year and is now jockeying for position behind fellow running backs Tyrone Tracey Jr., injured rookie Cam Skattebo (hamstring), and Devin Singletary. Odds are still against Miller making much of an impact in 2025, but he's off to a good start in his battle for a roster spot.
