One week after the Texans' running game was completely stonewalled by the Tennessee Titans' defense, veteran running back Lamar Miller is prepping for an increased workload.
With backup running back Alfred Blue out with a concussion, Miller is in line for even more carries. The Texans rushed for a season-low 53 yards against the Titans as Miller rushed for 56 yards on 15 carries.
Miller will be backed up by Andre Ellington and Jordan Todman.
"Yeah, I'm looking forward to it," Miller said. "Whenever my number is called. I'm looking forward to taking advantage of the opportunity with however many carries I get.
