Description
Millard came out of Foothill High in California as an undersized linebacker. He drew some interest from his dad (Former NFL Player Keith Millard) alma mater, Washington State, and from San Jose State but opted for Cal Poly, where he was a four-year starter. He was a tackle machine finishing his career with 300 tackles, which is sixth all-time for the Mustangs and 24.5 tackles for lost yardage, 5.5 sacks, three interceptions and 11 games with double-digit tackles. Millard led the team with 82 tackles as a sophomore and peaked his senior season with 108, seven for loss, with four pass deflections, three quarterback hurries and one interception.
In 2012, Millard was a key member of a Cal Poly squad that finished 9-3 overall, earned a share of the Big Sky Conference in its first season in that league and earned a berth in the NCAA Division I FCS playoffs. In his final season as a Mustang, Millard recorded 108 tackles, including 7.0 for lost yardage, en route to second-team All-Big Sky Conference honors. He also had three pass breakups, an interception and a trio of quarterback hurries. His career totals: 150-150-300 tackles (No. 6 all-time at Cal Poly), 24.5 tackles for lost yardage, 5.5 sacks, three interceptions and 11 games with double-digit tackles.
A team captain as a senior, Millard played in a pair of all-star games early this year — the inaugural Medal of Honor Bowl in Charleston, S.C., and the East-West Shrine Game in St. Petersburg, Fla. —but went undrafted and signed with the Rams shortly after the 2014 NFL Draft.
Millard became one of the first players to sign with the Fall Experimental Football League (FXFL), a first-year organization where each of its six franchises will play a six-game schedule this season. Millard signed with the Brooklyn Bolts under head coach and former New York Jets offensive lineman John Bock and linebackers coach Marvin Jones, a former Jets star in his own right.
