News: 20 hours agoCoach Todd Bowles said McMillan (knee) was a full practice participant Wednesday, Brianna Dix of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

Spin: Prior to being inactive Week 1 at Cincinnati, McMillan had been dealing with a knee issue since early August that contained him to three limited practices last week. With an uninhibited session now under his belt, he's seemingly in the clear to return to action Sunday against the Browns. Assuming that's the case, McMillan and rookie third-rounder Ted Hurst would be the candidates for snaps in three-wide sets behind starters Emeka Egbuka and Chris Godwin.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: McMillan is a fascinating late-round sleeper after he impressed as a rookie before missing all but four games due to injury last season. The 2024 third-round pick was featured during the final five games of his rookie season and exploded for a league-high seven TD catches (at least one in all five outings) and 19.8 fantasy PPG (more than 16.7 points in all five) in that span. He was limited in his return to action late in 2025, but did flash with a 7-114-0 performance on nine targets in Week 17. The 24-year-old has a path to a near-every-down role in 2026 with only Emeka Egbuka and 30-year-old Chris Godwin ahead of him on the depth chart. McMillan is worth the inexpensive flier on draft day.
