Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Jalen McMillan suffered a severely strained neck after a hit from Pittsburgh Steelers cornerback Daryl Porter caused him land on his head and upper back, head coach Todd Bowles said.

On the play, McMillan skied to make a grab over the middle of the field, and Porter took out McMillan’s legs, sending the second-year wide receiver tumbling head first into the grass.
