ESPN NFL Draft analyst Matt Miller charged in connection with accident that cost him his arm


The Jasper County Prosecuting Attorney's office charged Matthew Keith Miller, 43, Webb City, Monday with failing to drive on the right half of the roadway in connection with the June 17 crash on MO 96 that cost him his left arm.

Miller's initial appearance is scheduled for 1:30 p.m. September 21 in Jasper County Circuit Court in Carthage with Judge John Nicholas presiding.

According to the Highway Patrol report, the accident occurred on MO 96 a mile and a half west of Oronogo when the 2023 Ford Bronco Miller was driving crossed the center line and was struck by a 2024 International driven by a 28-year-old Springfield man.








On July 10, Miller released the following statement on X:

A quick update: The surgery to remove my left arm was successful with hopes of an eventual prosthetic replacement.

Similarly, the femur and patella surgeries were also successful and the fantastic surgery team was able to save my left leg. 








To best focus on my healing and recovery, I’m stepping away indefinitely and will be placed on leave from ESPN. Thank you to all for the prayers and thoughts; please keep them coming.


After the accident, allegations about Miller's alleged misuse of charities and fantasy football leagues are being investigated by the Missouri Attorney General's office.

Miller is due in the Jasper County Circuit Court on Sept. 21.

The news of Miller’s charges was first reported by local reporter Robert Turner on his website, the Turner Report.

They even gave you a link!

Matthew Keith Miller, will not only be facing misdemeanor charges, but the possibility of future Felony Criminal Charges, based on the Missouri AG's findings of his Illegal Fake Charity Fundraising, Unpaid Winnings, Collecting Payments for NFL draft Scouting Lessons he never Delivered - and probably other schemes. Of course, because of his accident and loss of his arm - I am sure that he will get some type of sympathy for what he has done.

It would have been nice if they had gotten Randy's name right.
