Tetairoa McMillan is the man for the big moments. He's proved that on countless occasions since joining the Carolina Panthers, but joint practice with the Houston Texans represented the toughest test of his NFL journey so far.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, the wide receiver passed with flying colors. McMillan also managed to crush a major pre-draft concern along the way.
It was hot and intense as the Panthers and Texans locked horns on the practice field before their preseason contest this weekend. This session also saw McMillan go up against All-Pro cornerback Derek Stingley Jr., who replaced Jaycee Horn as the highest-paid player at the position in NFL history this offseason before Sauce Gardner got his megabucks extension.
