Florida Gators senior linebacker Ventrell Miller has been announced as a participant in the 2023 Reese’s Senior Bowl.
Held in Mobile, Alabama, the 2023 Senior Bowl will be announcing its participants throughout the rest of the month. It is the preeminent college showcase game for prospective NFL prospects where famously, the prospects are coached by NFL coaching staffs.
Last season, the Jets and Lions — both teams held top five picks in the 2022 draft — provided their sideline gurus for the event. The coaches for the 2023 Senior Bowl have not been announced yet.
Miller was the Gators’ best player in 2022. The defense was completely different without number 51 at the middle linebacker spot. He played in 43 games across five seasons for the Gators. He suffered a torn bicep in the second game of the 2021 season, forcing him to sit out for the rest of the year. He recorded 124 total tackles, 23.5 tackles for loss, and 7.5 sacks in his career as a Florida Gator.
