NFL injury tracker: Latest news, fantasy implications for Week 17 as TreVeyon Henderson set to return for Patriots

The Carolina Panthers have quite a bit at stake Sunday. A win would move the team even closer to a division title and a playoff appearance, and would potentially shake up the No. 1 seed in the NFC. A loss could result in the Panthers missing the playoffs all together.

With that in mind, the team got some discouraging news Sunday morning. Rookie wideout Tetairoa McMillan was added to the injury report early due to an illness.

McMillan is listed as questionable, so he could still play in the contest. Given the uncertainty surrounding the illness, it’s unclear whether McMillan will be impacted or play fewer snaps in the game if he’s able to go.

It sounds, however, like he should be good to go. McMillan’s addition to the injury report was reportedly more precautionary, per ESPN.

After a modest start of his NFL career, McMillan has really come on in recent weeks. Since Week 11, the rookie has 19 catches for 306 yards and five touchdowns.
