The Panthers expect to have wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan on the field today against the Saints. McMillan, who is listed as questionable with a hamstring injury, is ready to play, according to multiple reports.

But for most of the season, McMillan has been the focal point of opposing coordinators when it comes to defending Carolina's passing game. He has drawn plenty of double coverage, making his numbers even more impressive. Furthermore, he's not had a veteran wide receiver to lean on with David Moore sidelined for most of the season.

H e was targeted a season-low two times despite the fact that he was on the field for more offensive snaps than any other Carolina Panthers ’ wide receiver on Sunday. Rookie Tetairoa McMillan has been the club’s top pass-catching option all season, but he wound up taking somewhat of a backseat vs. the Los Angeles Rams.
