Rough moment in Pittsburgh tonight when receiver Jalen McMillan landed on his head.
He was down on the turf for a couple of minutes and it felt a lot longer.
On a 3rd-and-8 throw on the Bucs’ opening drive, quarterback Teddy Bridgewater threw a high ball downfield to McMillan who elevated for the catch, got upended and landed on his head. The TV replay looked ugly, with McMillan landing on his head and his neck appearing to compress awkwardly.
Amazingly, McMillan held on for the 18-yard catch and a first down. Gamer!
The Bucs announced McMillan has a back injury and is being evaluated for a concussion. When he stood up for the first team, McMillan seemed to take a half step toward the wrong sideline and was directed to go in the other direction.
