Former NFL quarterback Jim Miller’s run at SiriusXM NFL Radio has come to an end, closing a chapter that stretched more than a decade and left listeners with more questions than answers about the circumstances surrounding his departure.
On Monday, Miller’s co-host, Pat Kirwan, informed listeners that Miller is no longer part of the SiriusXM team, confirming that his absence during Super Bowl week was not temporary. Miller had last appeared on the channel on Sunday February 1. During the announcement, Kirwan expressed appreciation for his longtime partner’s work and professionalism.
“We’re grateful for all of Jim’s insights and contributions through his many years on SiriusXM, and I’m personally grateful to have him as my on-air teammate for a long time,” said Kirwan. “I wish him the best going forward, as all of you will as well.”
However, Kirwan concluded his remarks with a statement that added intrigue to the situation, urging listeners to “leave this subject as it is” and expressing hope that Miller “gets on with his life and things go well.”
Miller co-hosted Movin’ The Chains alongside Kirwan beginning in 2013, becoming a steady presence on the channel and building credibility with listeners through detailed film breakdowns and quarterback analysis shaped by his own NFL experience. Over time, the program developed a loyal following among fans seeking in-depth conversation rather than headline-driven debate.
Miller spent 12 seasons in the NFL after entering the league as a sixth-round pick in 1994. Over the course of his career, he played for the Pittsburgh Steelers, Jacksonville Jaguars, Atlanta Falcons, Chicago Bears, Tampa Bay Buccaneers and New England Patriots, appearing in 37 regular-season games with 27 starts.
