Rico Dowdle to Play; Tetairoa McMillan’s Status Uncertain for Panthers
Rico Dowdle is set to play for the Panthers in their upcoming match against the Saints this Sunday. However, an injury concern has arisen, putting the status of wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan in doubt.
Injury Updates for the Panthers
On Friday, Tetairoa McMillan sustained a hamstring injury, leading Panthers’ head coach Dave Canales to declare him questionable for the game. McMillan has had a notable season, recording 41 receptions for 558 yards and scoring four touchdowns. His potential absence could severely impact the Panthers’ offensive strategy as they aim to secure a sixth win this weekend.
Additional Injury Concerns
- Brycen Tremayne (hip) is also listed as questionable.
- Chandler Zavala has been ruled out due to an elbow injury.
If McMillan and Tremayne cannot play, the Panthers may rely on the following receivers:
- Xavier Legette
- Jalen Coker
- Jimmy Horn
- Hunter Renfrow
The Panthers are keen on overcoming these hurdles to improve their record to 6-4 against the Saints this Sunday.
