Tetairoa McMillan Fantasy Overview

Coker had his worst game of the season, catching 1 of 4 targets for 9 yards. He finished as WR69 for the week. He ran a route on 91% of dropbacks, but drew just a 10% target rate per route run with 0.30 yards per route run. Coker worked a deep role with a 20.0-yard aDOT and lined up in the slot on 53% of his snaps. Tetairoa McMillan was the clear lead receiver with 6 targets, while Darren Waller’s 50-yard TD led the team in receiving yards.

WR Jalen Coker led the Panthers across receiving categories in Sunday's win over the Eagles. He drew 13 targets (33.3% of Bryce Young's total pass attempts), tallied 97 yards (34.5%), and tied WR Tetairoa McMillan for the team lead with 6 catches (30.0%). The game marked a return for Coker, who missed Week 4 with a quad injury that knocked him out of the Week 3 contest at Cleveland. Coker trailed McMillan by just one snap and one route. Coker's biggest play came via a 32-yard catch-and-run late in the third quarter, on a play that found him lining up in the backfield to create a coverage matchup with LB Zack Baun.

McMillan scores 44.2 PPR points to not only sit atop as the WR1 of Week 4, but record the most points by a WR this season. He set career-highs for receptions, targets, and yards in a week after catching 14 of 16 targets for 192 yards and 2 TDs in the Panthers Sunday Night Football win over the Lions.

Panthers WR Jalen Coker (quad) is inactive for tonight’s game vs. the Lions. He got in limited practices on Thursday and Friday, so we’re tentatively expecting him back after Carolina’s Week 5 bye. Coker’s absence tonight leaves Brycen Tremayne as Carolina’s No. 2 WR – and WR Tetairoa McMillan and TE Darren Waller as the top two target bets.
