Bucs Wire on MSNBuccaneers place WR Jalen McMillan on injured reserve, return date TBD
Wide receiver Jalen McMillan was placed on injured reserve, meaning he will not be able to play until Week 5 at a minimum. ESPN's Jenna Laine reports, though, that McMillan could more than likely be out until after the Bucs bye Week, which would have him return in November.
McMillan sustained a “severely sprained neck” in their preseason game against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Saturday and will land on injured reserve, according to the Tampa Bay Times’ Rick Stroud. Though an official timeline for his return isn’t clear, McMillan may miss at least eight games recovering.
