The Denver Broncos hosted a Top 30 visit with Georgia defensive tackle Christen Miller<\/a>. Here\u2019s more information on the standout player, a top 50 prospect in this year\u2019s NFL Draft, whom the Broncos could take with their first pick at No. 62 overall in the second round.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Cedar Grove High School (Ellenwood, Georgia) \u2014 Class of 2022<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

Miller is from Ellenwood, Georgia, where he played football at Cedar Grove High School and helped the team reach the state championship as a sophomore in 2019 and as a senior in 2021.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

According to 247sports<\/a>, Miller was a four-star prospect. The 6-foot-4, 321-pound defensive lineman was named to the 2021 Georgia Class 3A All-State First Team Defense by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution and GHSF Daily, while also being named the Class 3A Defensive Player of the Year by the AJC and being invited to play in the All-American Bowl.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Georgia (2022-2025)<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Miller decided to stay in the state after committing to play college football for the Georgia Bulldogs under Kirby Smart<\/a>. In his first season with the Bulldogs, Miller was primarily a reserve defensive lineman, playing in four games.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In his sophomore season, Miller remained a reserve for Georgia, playing in 13 games and recording 14 tackles before the end of the season. As a junior, Miller saw much more playing time, starting in 10 games, tallying 27 tackles.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The 2025 season marked Miller\u2019s last with Georgia, where he started all 14 games, recording 23 tackles, 23 quarterback hurries, and 1.5 sacks. Miller also racked up career highs in his final season after making five tackles against Notre Dame and Mississippi State, getting one quarterback sack against Georgia Tech, and recording a tackle for loss in the team’s College Football Playoff matchup against Ole Miss, which took place on New Year\u2019s Day.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Broncos’ current defensive tackles on their depth chart include D.J. Jones<\/a>, Eyioma Uwazurike<\/a>, and Jordan Miller<\/a>. Even though Denver already has two solid nose tackles in Jones and Miller, the younger Miller can still learn a lot from them to continue developing his game and give Uwazurike competition for the final roster spot if drafted by the Broncos. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
