Packers Sign Cam Miller to Practice Squad
Green Bay adds former Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Cam Miller to its practice squad as the team sits at 5-3.
Updated on Nov. 3, 2026 in Football
The Green Bay Packers signed quarterback Cam Miller to the practice squad on Monday. Miller, a former Las Vegas Raiders draft pick, had most recently been cut by the Miami Dolphins on August 30.
Why it matters
Practice squad additions give Green Bay depth at quarterback while the team holds a 5-3 record and sits fourth in the NFC North. The move reflects how teams keep young passers developing without occupying active roster spots.
Miller was the 215th overall pick in the sixth round of the 2025 NFL Draft and won two FCS national titles at North Dakota State, in 2021 and 2024. The Packers stand at 5-3 and fourth in the NFC North, and the source does not address Miller's future role with the team.

Season Trajectory
Under NFL practice squad rules, teams can carry developmental players outside the 53-man active roster, and Green Bay's move follows that pattern of stocking quarterback depth during the season. The addition matters less for immediate competitive balance than for insurance behind the Packers' current passers as they pursue a playoff position in the NFC North.
Miller's practice squad status means he will not count against the Packers' active roster limit unless he is elevated. Fantasy managers should note that practice squad players are not typically rostered in standard leagues until they earn a regular role.
The takeaway
Roster depth moves like this one show how NFL teams manage quarterback insurance during the season. Readers tracking the Packers should watch whether Miller is elevated to the active roster in coming weeks.
