Summary

Tight End Rank: #26All Players: #143

It was a bit of a surprise after the last few seasons but Miller had arguably his best season as a pro last year, setting career highs in yards (816) and touchdowns (8). He topped 70 receptions for just the second time in his career. Miller had 50 or more yards eight of 16 games. He was a big part of the Steelers new offense, an offense that gave Miller more than 100 targets for the first time in his career. Miller also got increased work in the passing game because of injuries, though, so keep that in mind for this season. He is returning from a major knee injury and is no sure thing to be ready for 2013. He could even miss some of the season. But when healthy, Miller will continue to start at tight end for the Steelers. Despite his size (6-5), Miller is quick and runs good routes, making him a tough cover. Plus, he is tough to bring down once he gets the ball.

FANTASY OUTLOOK

Miller had a surprise season last year but is a concern because of the knee injury. He could be missing some time. He is worth a look as a No. 2 fantasy tight end, though. He has upside if he can get healthy. He certainly looked good in this offense last season.

Pittsburgh Steelers TE Heath Miller (knee) said he likes the tight ends on the roster and believes they can all contribute to the team. 'We have a really good room, a lot of capable guys in there,' Miller said. 'I think maybe one of the best top to bottom that I've been starting camp with. Hopefully we'll be able to keep everybody healthy, and I think everybody is capable of contributing and doing a good job.' There is a strong possibility that Miller will not be ready for the start of the regular season.
