Who Should I Start? Xazavian Valladay or Dante Miller

Friday, June 20, 6:17 PM

New Orleans Saints running back Xazavian Valladay was released by the organization on Friday. This isn't a shocking move given the Saints recently signed running back Cam Akers. The Saints running back room was getting a little crowded, so they've decided to move on from Valladay. The 26-year-old hasn't done much during his pro career. He appeared in only one game on special teams with the New York Jets in 2023. He'll look to land with another organization as depth ahead of the start of the season.

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.
