Colorado offensive weapon Dre'lon Miller has found his new home, and it is one that Buffs fans will be familiar with. The former four-star recruit committed to Baylor Monday morning as the Texas native heads back home.
Miller was seen as a crucial piece of Deion Sanders' 2024 recruiting class, coming in as a top-100 player and the No. 19 wide receiver in the country. He came on strong as a true freshman with 32 receptions for 277 yards and three touchdowns.
Coming into 2025, Miller was a breakout candidate and had the makings of becoming Colorado's top offensive playmaker following the departure of Travis Hunter. That never came to fruition, as Miller saw minimal action in 2025 and moved to running back to cover for poor play and injuries. He finished the year with just 20 receptions for 158 yards and one touchdown. On the ground, Miller carried the ball 46 times for 134 yards and one touchdown. A change of scenery seemed best for all parties after a 3-9 season.

The Buffaloes will face off against Miller and the Baylor Bears this upcoming season in Waco.
Sanders has done a good job finding replacements for Miller, adding three wide receivers and two running backs in the first week of the portal being open.
