Miller reverted to the Giants' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
The running back was elevated to the active roster for the second straight game due to Devin Singletary's groin injury. Miller, though, did not play an offensive snap in New York's 17-7 loss to Cincinnati. He did play on seven special-teams snaps and assisted on a tackle in punt coverage.

Dante Miller: Gets cut loose
Rotowire
Miller (hamstring) was waived by the Giants on Tuesday, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.
Miller was dealing with a hamstring injury last week but it doesn't appear the team waived him with an injury designation, so he should be considered healthy. The South Carolina product was impressive when he was able to suit up in preseason and camp, making him a likely practice-squad candidate for another team or the Giants themselves, if he clears waivers.

Giants' Dante Miller: Limited in Tuesday's practice
Rotowire
Miller (hamstring) was a limited participant at practice Tuesday, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
Miller rushed for 63 yards on 12 carries in the Giants' preseason opener against the Lions, but he was unable to suit up for Saturday's contest against the Texans due to a hamstring injury. He'll be slowly worked back into practice in the hopes he can suit up for Saturday's preseason finale against the Jets. Miller is competing for a depth spot at running back behind starter Devin Singletary.

Giants' Dante Miller: Impressive in preseason opener
Rotowire
Miller tallied 63 yards on 12 carries and caught both of his passing targets for seven yards in a preseason win against Detroit on Thursday.
Miller led Giants running backs with 26 offensive snaps in the exhibition contest. That doesn't indicate his place on the depth chart -- in fact, it more likely suggests that he's near the bottom of the pecking order -- but the 25-year-old nonetheless took advantage of the opportunity, leading New York with 63 rushing yards on a healthy 5.3 YPC. Miller impressively ended the third quarter with a nine-yard rush after the Giants had been pinned back at their own four-yard line, and he added a 19-yard carry two plays into the fourth. While Devin Singletary is secure in his starting RB role and both Tyrone Tracy and Eric Gray looked good as the most likely No. 2 and No. 3 options Thursday, Miller could certainly carve out a role for New York this season and give himself a chance to rise up the depth chart with continued strong play.

Giants' Dante Miller: Impressive in training camp
Rotowire
Miller has shown off his quickness during training camp and is carving out a role in the Giants' backfield, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
Miller joined the Giants in April after last playing at the University of South Carolina in 2022. He has showcased his quickness during training camp, including on a run Tuesday in which he bounced to the outside for a big gain, per Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com. If Miller can perform well in practice and preseason games, he could surpass Tyrone Tracy and Eric Gray for the No. 2 running back job behind starter Devin Singletary.
