Panthers' Tetairoa McMillan Expected to Play vs. Saints After Late Hamstring Scare

The rookie remains questionable after a Friday practice injury, with Carolina preparing contingencies through a practice-squad elevation.

Overview

  • ESPN's Adam Schefter reported Sunday morning that Tetairoa McMillan is expected to be active against New Orleans.
  • McMillan was added to the injury report Friday with a hamstring issue after a limited practice.
  • He retained a questionable designation through Saturday and was not downgraded.
  • The Panthers elevated wide receiver Dan Chisena from the practice squad late in the week as a precaution.
  • If McMillan is limited or out, Jimmy Horn Jr. likely sees increased snaps, with Xavier Legette and Jalen Coker positioned as primary targets for Bryce Young.
