Play of the Day: Tetairoa McMillan makes splash play on crucial drive

"That ball came out good, good anticipation. I got to have those at the end of the day, so, you know, we just come back tomorrow, correct it, we'll go from there," explained McMillan. "I just got to get my head around quicker. That was a perfect ball from Bryce. I'll finish those next time."

Added Canales, "(The) ball that got on him pretty quickly down there, could have been the first touchdown, he got hung up a little, and that's red zone football in the NFL, you know, it happens quickly. The windows close and the quarterbacks are going to put their back foot in the ground. Bryce delivered a great throw right there and I think that's one that (TMac will) be able to grow from."

It was a drive indicative of all McMillan can bring to this offense, and the strides he still needs to make as a rookie, with a big dash of excitement surrounding what is to come.

"That's what we're counting on," said Canales. "That's why he's here; stretch the field, play big, and that was, you know, a sign of good things."
