Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Scotty Miller in 2023.
One familiar face from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ recent past is getting another shot with a Super Bowl contender after wide receiver Scotty Miller signed a free-agent contract with the Chicago Bears on Saturday.
Miller, 28 years old, was a 6th-round pick (No. 208 overall) by the Buccaneers in the 2019 NFL draft, and played his 1st 4 NFL seasons in Tampa Bay, including winning a Super Bowl following the 2020 season.
“Bears are signing free-agent wide receiver Scotty Miller, per (agents) Drew Rosenhaus and Robert Bailey,” ESPN’s Adam Schefter wrote on his official X account on Saturday.
The move reunites Miller with a familiar face from the Buccaneers in Bears assistant head coach and wide receivers coach Antwaan Randle-El, who was an offensive assistant in Tampa Bay for Miller’s 1st 2 seasons.
Miller played for the Pittsburgh Steelers for the last 2 seasons after spending 1 season with the Atlanta Falcons in 2023.
