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. Read Past Outlooks

Active but no snaps Sunday
McMillan, who missed Week 9 with a hamstring injury, was active in Sunday's loss to the 49ers but didn't log any snaps, Greg Auman of FOX Sports reports.
ANALYSIS
The rookie wideout had logged just a single practice, and limited at that, during Week 10 prep, but the fact the Buccaneers had invested a game-day roster spot in him would have seemed to portend a regular role. Nevertheless, McMillan never saw the field against San Francisco, and in addition to Auman's confirmation of such, Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times appeared to imply the speedster simply wasn't healthy enough to run routes. McMillan now will have a Week 11 bye to potentially get back to full health before a Week 12 road matchup against the Giants, a game that also could mark the return of Mike Evans (hamstring).

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Capitalizes on minicamp opportunity
McMillan, a rookie third-round pick out of Washington, saw plenty of work with quarterback Baker Mayfield during the Buccaneers' mandatory minicamp, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Mike Evans was not participating Wednesday, and Trey Palmer also sat out for a second straight day for undisclosed reasons, so McMillan was in Mayfield's sights plenty. Laine notes the rookie caught a red-zone touchdown Tuesday before hauling in all three targets from Mayfield on Wednesday. "He's really friendly at the top of his routes, attacks the ball, catches with his hands. Just explosive, a smooth route runner," Mayfield said.
