News: 4 days agoMcMillan (hamstring) was a full practice participant Wednesday.

Spin: McMillan was listed as active for Tampa Bay's final game before a Week 11 bye, but he was only available in the event of an injury to another player and didn't end up playing any snaps. He should be ready for his normal role two weeks later, facing the Giants on Sunday with fellow wideout Mike Evans (hamstring) expected back in the lineup. McMillan didn't do much even when both Evans and Chris Godwin (ankle) were absent, but the rookie still should have a role down the stretch, likely operating as the Bucs' second or third wideout.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: The Buccaneers took McMillan with the 92nd pick of the 2024 NFL draft. The Washington product had a nice showing at the NFL combine and should emerge as a No. 3 or 4 receiver option for Tampa this season. But with veterans like Mike Evans, Chris Godwin and Trey Palmer in front of him on the depth chart, it's hard to imagine McMillan having any kind of breakout campaign as a rookie. It would likely take multiple injuries to aforementioned trio of teammates for McMillan to be worth using in fantasy this season.
