DeMarcus Armon "Dee" Milliner (born September 14, 1991) is an American football cornerback who is currently a free agent. He was drafted by the New York Jets in the first round of the 2013 NFL Draft. He played college football at Alabama, and was recognized as a consensus All-American in 2012.
A native of Millbrook, Alabama, Milliner attended Stanhope Elmore High School in Millbrook, where he played football and ran track. In football, he was a starting defensive back ever since his freshman year at Alabama's highest high school football level (6A). In January 2014 the Alabama High School Athletic Association re-aligned to seven classifications, with 32 teams competing at the 7A level. In his first start against Auburn High School he intercepted a pass and ran it back 40 yards for a touchdown. By his sophomore year, Milliner was a Montgomery Advertiser All-Metro 5A-6A selection. After finishing his junior season with 57 tackles (33 solo) and seven interceptions (two of them returned for touchdowns), he earned 6A ASWA All-State honorable mention. He made 71 tackles as a senior in 2009 while intercepting three passes and breaking up eight passes as opposing offenses chose to throw away from his side of the field. He was a consensus All-State first teamer, and a 2009 USA Today All-American selection. Milliner was selected to the Under Armour All-America Game and played in the Alabama-Mississippi All-Star Classic.
Milliner was also an standout track and field athlete at Stanhope Elmore, where he competed in events ranging from the 100-meters to the long jump. At the 2008 Auburn Invitation, he placed 1st in the long jump event at 21 ft 3 in (6.52 m). He finished 8th in the 200-meter dash at the 2009 Central-Falcon Invitational, with a time of 22.00 seconds. He recorded a personal-best time of 10.86 seconds in the 100-meter dash at the 2009 AHSAA 4A-6A State Meet, where he took 4th.
