Description: Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill said Tuesday that Lamar Miller is the team's starting running back for 2013, according to NFL.com.
Insight: Miller was selected in the fourth round of the 2012 NFL Draft and only received 51 carries in 13 games with Reggie Bush and Daniel Thomas in front of him on the depth chart. Bush is in Detroit, and Thomas hasn't proven to be anything more than a concussion-prone plodder in two years. The team drafted Mike Gillislee in the fifth round this season, but he's not expected to challenge Miller's starting job.

Description: With Miami running back Daniel Thomas doubtful due to a concussion, Lamar Miller will serve as Reggie Bush's backup.
Insight: Bush is also a little bit nicked up. The team hasn't been happy with Miller's "awareness" but they probalby have no choice but to use him in Week 6 for up to 10 carries.
