Who Should I Start? Tetairoa McMillan or Emeka Egbuka

Saturday, October 11, 9:12 PM

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan remains the team's No. 1 option on the depth chart. He's logged 305 offensive snaps through the first five weeks of the 2025 campaign, with Hunter Renfrow sitting behind him with 192. Unfortunately, that hasn't necessarily translated into consistent production from the rookie. McMillan currently has 24 catches (43 targets) for 351 yards. However, he still hasn't scored a touchdown. With that said, the Panthers may continue to rely mostly on Rico Dowdle against Dallas, his former team, in Week 6. Although McMillan is the favorite to see the most attention from Bryce Young on the receiving end versus a week Cowboys defense, fantasy managers will be taking a gamble by having him in their lineups. Still, the wideout has been a top-30 fantasy producer in standard and PPR formats, so he deserves starting consideration.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Emeka Egbuka was unstoppable during last week's game against the Seattle Seahawks. Egbuka hauled in all seven of his targets for 163 yards and a touchdown in the win. The rookie wideout has now posted back-to-back games with at least 100 receiving yards. The Bucs are going to be without Mike Evans (hamstring) and Chris Godwin (leg) for Sunday's game against the San Francisco 49ers. That being said, Egbuka is expected to serve as the focal point in the receiving game. The 22-year-old has shown no signs of slowing down so he belongs as a strong WR1 for Week 6.
