Rugby sevens

Miller was a member of the Australian men's rugby sevens' squad at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics. The team came third in their pool round and then lost to Fiji 19-nil in the quarterfinal.

2022

In round 11 of the 2022 NRL season, Miller made his first grade debut for Cronulla and scored a try in the clubs 25-18 victory over the Gold Coast. In round 21 of the season, Miller came off the bench and played in the centres, replacing Siosifa Talakai in the Sharks 24-18 win over the Dragons. In this game he managed a game high 6 tackle breaks. Miller played for Cronulla in their elimination final loss to South Sydney.

2023

In January, Miller was released from his Cronulla contract to sign a three-year deal with the Newcastle Knights.

In round 1 of the 2023 NRL season, Miller made his Newcastle debut in the club's 12-20 loss to the New Zealand Warriors. In round 3, Miller scored two tries for Newcastle in their 36-20 loss against the Dolphins. Miller served as Newcastle’s primary fullback to start the season, and after five rounds he led the league in tackle-busts and was top-five in average run metres. Despite his career-best form to start to the season, Miller later struggled to find consistency and by round 13 was relegated to a bench role as Newcastle star Kalyn Ponga returned to his familiar Fullback position.

On 23 August, Miller was released from the final two years of his Knights contract, so he could sign a three-year deal to join English side Leeds starting in 2024.
