Jalen McMillan Plays Limited Role in Return from Injury

Friday, September 25, 5:32 PM

After missing his team's season opener because of a knee injury, Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Jalen McMillan returned to the field in Week 2. However, the third-year wideout was hardly utilized, playing just seven offensive snaps and failing to earn a single target. McMillan missed most of training camp with the knee issue, and Tampa Bay may simply be working him back in slowly. Still, the 24-year-old missed nearly the entire 2025 season due to a neck injury, so it's been a while since he was a regular contributor for the Bucs. The Buccaneers also have other options in their wide receiver room. Emeka Egbuka and Chris Godwin Jr. are locked into the WR1 and WR2 roles, and youngsters Ted Hurst III and Tez Johnson have flashed upside as well. At least in the short term, McMillan should remain off the radar of fantasy managers.

Pat Bryant Still Worth a Roster Spot Despite a Disappointing Week 2 Performance

Tuesday, September 22, 9:15 AM

A quiet performance in Sunday's win over the Jaguars could have Denver Broncos wide receiver Pat Bryant hitting waivers this week, but despite his one-target, zero-catch outing, the second-year player is still worth a roster spot in deeper leagues. Bryant saw the second-highest snap share of all Broncos wide receivers and was on the field for 76.5% of the team's passing plays. He has been moved across the formation through the first two weeks of the season, and while Sunday's game plan benefited offseason acquisition Jaylen Waddle, Bryant still has the second-most receiving yards of all Broncos receivers and should see more involvement moving forward. He is RotoBaller's WR65 ahead of a tough Sunday night matchup with the Rams.
