The veteran wideout has been a dominant red-zone target this season, catching six touchdowns in eight games for the Colts.

Tetairoa McMillan Was Panthers' Lone Bright Spot on Offense Sunday

Sunday, October 26, 7:54 PM

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan caught seven of his 10 targets for 99 yards during Sunday's Week 8 contest against the Buffalo Bills. The Panthers were blown out by a score of 40-9 as Andy Dalton, who was filling in for Bryce Young (ankle), turned the ball over three times. McMillan was a rare bright spot in the defeat, pacing the team in all major receiving statistics. He set a new career-high in receptions, scored double-digit fantasy points (PPR) for the sixth time in eight games, and ranks as the overall WR16 so far. Playing in negative game script scenarios bodes well for McMillan, and it appears as though he can produce regardless of whether Young or Dalton is under center. The rookie pass catcher should be viewed as a strong WR2 option heading into Week 9 against Green Bay.
