Josh Miller (punter)

Joshua Harris Miller (born April 14, 1970) is an American former professional football player who was a punter in the Canadian Football League (CFL) and National Football League (NFL)

Miller played college football for the Arizona Wildcats, and was a first-team All-American in 1992. He was signed by the Baltimore Stallions of the CFL as an undrafted free agent in 1994. Miller was also a member of the Seattle Seahawks, Pittsburgh Steelers, New England Patriots and Tennessee Titans of the NFL, and played in 168 games in his NFL career. After his playing career, he became a football analyst.

Miller, who is Jewish, attended East Brunswick High School and East Brunswick Jewish Center (EBJC) in East Brunswick, New Jersey. In East Brunswick High School he was an All-State pick in football (playing wide receiver, in addition to handling the duties of punting where he still holds some career records) and track (as a high jumper), as well as playing guard in basketball.

Miller was a high school classmate and football teammate of The Young Turks founder and CEO, Cenk Uygur.

Miller attended Scottsdale Community College for two years and was a letterman in football with the Fighting Artichokes. He was a two-time All-Western States Football League pick at punter.

Miller transferred to the University of Arizona and was a two-year letterman in football. He was an All-Pacific-10 Conference selection and an All-America selection as a senior.

After graduating from Arizona, Miller signed in 1994 playing for the Baltimore Stallions of the Canadian Football League (recommended by Rich Ellerson, his former Arizona coach who once was a CFL staffer) and was a member of the 1995 Grey Cup champion team. Miller recorded a "single" in the 83rd Grey Cup when a punt, aided by a 50-km/h wind at Taylor Field in Regina, Saskatchewan bounded over the head of a Calgary Stampeders return man and out the back of the end zone to award Baltimore a single point.

Miller spent the preseason with the Seattle Seahawks before being released in the fall of the 1996 season.
