The New Orleans Saints have released running back Kendre Miller, according to a report from USA TODAY Sports on Saturday. The transaction was confirmed by Kevin Tompkins, with the move taking effect on November 7, 2026.
Miller, a third-round draft pick in 2023, appeared in 15 games over two seasons with the Saints, primarily serving as a backup in the team's running back rotation. The release comes as New Orleans continues to adjust its roster ahead of the latter portion of the NFL season.
The 23-year-old running back will now be subject to waivers, giving other NFL teams the opportunity to claim him before he becomes a free agent. Miller recorded 156 rushing yards on 38 carries during his rookie campaign while adding 11 receptions for 86 yards.
