Abbreviated '25 due to injury

January 6, 2026
McMillan brought in his only target for 11 yards in the Buccaneers' 16-14 win over the Panthers on Saturday. He finished the 2025 season with 12 receptions for 178 yards on 15 targets and one carry for one yard across four games.
ANALYSIS
A neck injury suffered in the preseason ended up wiping out most of McMillan's second NFL season, as the wideout didn't make his 2025 debut until Week 15. He did post a 100-yard effort in Week 17 against the Dolphins, however. McMillan should have no restrictions for OTAs and could wind up in the No. 3 WR role if Chris Godwin can't come to terms on restructuring his contract and gets lets go by Tampa Bay.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
McMillan caught 79 passes for 1,089 yards and nine touchdowns for Washington in 2022, but a knee injury held him back last season and allowed Ja'Lynn Polk to emerge as the Huskies' new No. 2 receiver. McMillan recovered some of his draft stock with a solid showing at the 2024 Combine -- 4.47 40, 37-inch vertical, 127-inch broad jump, 6.94-second cone drills -- and ended up going to the Bucs late in Round 3 with the 92nd overall pick. Meanwhile, new Bucs offensive coordinator Liam Coen has said he envisions Chris Godwin in the slot rather than mostly playing outside the way he did last year. McMillan thus figures to compete with incumbent No. 3 receiver Trey Palmer for a role that will largely entail perimeter snaps in three-wide sets. While it probably won't be a high-volume role if everyone is healthy, McMillan could be tasked with much more if Godwin or Mike Evans misses time.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Appears likely to play Thursday
WRTampa Bay Buccaneers
December 10, 2025
McMillan, who's yet to make his regular-season debut because of a serious neck injury that he suffered in a preseason game against the Steelers, was activated from injured reserve Wednesday and is questionable for Thursday's game against the Falcons, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
McMillan had his 21-day practice window activated last week, and he's subsequently put in six limited practices. Head coach Todd Bowles has been impressed with how both McMillan and fellow sidelined receiver Mike Evans have performed, noting the duo "looked good, they looked fresh, they ran great routes, they looked like they never left." McMillan appears likely to make his season debut against Atlanta and will probably serve as the No. 4 receiver, but final confirmation on his availability will arrive when the team releases its inactives list 90 minutes prior to the 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff.
