Will Miller is flashing as a Navy linebacker with early-impact tackling and room to grow
In the 2026 season, Navy outside linebacker Will Miller has opened with 2 tackles in the Midshipmen’s Sept. 6 win over Towson, and his profile still reads like a developing defender rather than a stat-stuffer[1][4][8]. At 6-foot-3 and 217 pounds, he brings length, athletic upside, and a Navy-style edge, with reports showing he’s already handling edge/striker duties and earning early playing time[5][10]. The fit is intriguing if you want a high-motor, physical linebacker who can grow into a bigger role—less instant headline machine, more steady-service academy grinder with sneaky value[5][10].
