To the relief of Tampa Bay Buccaneers fans everywhere, wide receiver Jalen McMillan made his triumphant return last week against the Falcons.
His return comes after he missed the last four months with a broken neck, one that was even more serious than it sounded.
McMillan addressed his injury while talking with the media this week and revealed that it was such a serious injury that he was close to being paralyzed. It was a sobering reminder of just how intense football can be, and makes his return after just a few months even more miraculous.
Bucs WR Jalen McMillan was told by doctors he came close to being paralyzed after a neck injury he sustained in a preseason game at Pittsburgh.
