The Chicago Bears are hosting former Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Scott Miller for a tryout next week, presumably during their rookie minicamp, according to ESPN insider Adam Schefter. Miller is also visiting with the NFC North rival Detroit Lions.
Miller is a former sixth-round pick in the 2019 NFL Draft by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, where he spent his first four seasons. He had a career year in his sophomore season, hauling in 33 catches on 53 targets for 501 yards and three touchdowns in 16 games, including five starts.
Miller also spent time with the Atlanta Falcons (2023) and most recently the Pittsburgh Steelers (2024-25), where he totaled 14 catches for 131 yards in 26 games with one start. Now, Miller will have a chance to earn a spot on Chicago’s roster during next week’s rookie minicamp.
Chicago’s receiver room is led by a pair of young playmakers in Rome Odunze and Luther Burden III. The Bears lost several key veterans this offseason, including DJ Moore (traded to the Buffalo Bills for a second-round pick, which turned into tight end Sam Roush), Devin Duvernay and Olamide Zaccheaus. Chicago did add a veteran in Kalif Raymond, who reunites with Ben Johnson, and drafted rookie Zavion Thomas in the third round of the 2026 NFL Draft.
