Early life

He helped Cedar Grove to the state championship in 2019 as a sophomore and in 2021 as a senior. He was named the GHSA Defensive Player of the Year and first-team All-State by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. He was also invited to the All-American Bowl. A four-star prospect, he committed to play college football for the Georgia Bulldogs.

College career

As a freshman at Georgia, Miller appeared in four games. The following year, he recorded 14 tackles, four tackles-for-loss, and a sack. He initially planned to enter the NCAA transfer portal after the season, but then changed his mind and returned for the 2024 season. He became a starter in 2024, starting 10 games and recording 27 tackles and 3.5 tackles-for-loss. Pro Football Focus graded him as one of the best defensive linemen among Power Four conferences in the 2024 season. He opted to return to the Bulldogs as a senior in 2025, rather than enter the NFL draft. PFF ranked him as the fourth-best returning interior defensive lineman for the 2025 season.
