CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) --- The Carolina Panthers expect wide receiver Tetairoa
McMillan to play in Sunday's game against the Seahawks despite his name being
added to the injury report, a person with knowledge of the situation told The
Associated Press.
The reason for McMillan's listing on the injury report was noted as "illness."
He was not listed on the injury report earlier this week.
The person said he was put on the report as a precautionary measure.
The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the team has not publicly
said what was ailing McMillan.
McMillan, an NFL rookie of the year candidate, leads the Panthers with 65
receptions for 924 yards and seven touchdowns.
He was the No. 8 overall pick from Arizona.
The Panthers can wrap up the NFC South today with a win over Seattle and a
Tampa Bay loss or tie against Miami.
