TAMPA, Fla. — Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Jalen McMillan has what coach Todd Bowles described as a «severely strained neck» and the second-year player is «going to miss time» during the regular season, Bowles said Tuesday.
McMillan fell awkwardly on the back of his head and neck area while leaping up to make a catch in the Bucs’ second preseason game against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Saturday night. McMillan’s body folded in midair after he collided with defensive back Daryl Porter Jr.
Chris Godwin, who is recovering from ankle surgery and is still on the active/PUP list.
