Bowles Happy with McMillan's Return

Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles expressed joy at seeing wide receiver Jalen McMillan return from a neck injury that sidelined him for the first 13 games of the 2025 season. Bowles praised McMillan's resilience after the receiver took a significant hit to his neck but quickly recovered, showing no ill effects.

"He is a very talented guy and he is a very passionate guy. I think he fits in great with the receiver room and he is a workhorse," Bowles said, noting McMillan caught 12 passes in the team's final four games. With Mike Evans potentially leaving in free agency, McMillan's continued health and productivity becomes even more crucial for the Buccaneers' offense.
