News

  • Dropped by New England

    The Patriots waived McMillan on Friday.

    Analysis: The move makes room on the 53-man roster for Yannick Ngakoue, who the Patriots claimed off waivers Friday. McMillan has seen his snap count on defense dwindle over the course of the regular season, and through nine games he accumulated 45 tackles (25 solo) and one pass defended. Although a vested veteran, McMillan will land on the waiver wire since he was let go after the Nov. 5 trade deadline. He should draw plenty of interest from teams looking to bolster their linebacker corps.

  • Seven tackles vs. Niners

    McMillan finished Sunday's 30-13 loss to the 49ers with seven tackles (six solo).

    Analysis: McMillan's seven tackles Sunday was tied for most on the Patriots with Jabrill Peppers. McMillan got his second start at inside linebacker since Ja'Whaun Bentley was placed on injured reserve Sept. 25 due to a pectoral injury. With Bentley in danger of missing the entire 2024 season, McMillan will continue to start at inside linebacker for the Patriots alongside Christian Elliss. Through four games this year, McMillan has tallied 24 tackles (15 solo) and one pass defended.

  • Leads Pats with 10 tackles

    McMillan tallied 10 tackles (six solo) in Thursday's 24-3 loss to the Jets.

    Analysis: McMillan stepped into a starting linebacker role Thursday with Ja'Whaun Bentley being ruled out before the game due to a shoulder injury. McMillan saw the field for 53 of the Patriots' 73 defensive snaps, and he led the team in both combined and solo tackles. After playing just 18 special-team snaps in Week 1, the 2017 second-round pick has accrued 17 tackles (nine solo) and one pass defended over his last two games.

  • In line for more opportunities

    McMillan is expected to move into a starting role beginning Thursday against the Jets, Khari Thompson of Boston.com reports.

    Analysis: McMillan is slated to be the next man up at inside linebacker, as the Patriots are expected to be without Ja'Whaun Bentley (shoulder) for an extended time. The former has served a rotational role the last couple of seasons since he arrived in New England and hasn't played a near every-down role since his rookie and sophomore seasons in Miami.

  • Overcomes Achilles injury

    McMillan (Achilles) was spotted working out on the field during the Patriots' mandatory minicamp session Wednesday, Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald reports.

    Analysis: McMillan missed the entire 2023 season after partially tearing his Achilles' tendon last spring and undergoing surgery, but he now seems to be back to full health. During his last healthy season in 2022, the Ohio State product appeared in 16 games and made 35 total tackles. He's expected to compete for a depth role in New England's linebacker corps going into the 2024 campaign.

  • Inks extension

    McMillian (Achilles) has signed a one-year extension with the Patriots through 2024 worth up to $2.25 million, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: McMillan is out for the 2023 season due to an Achilles injury, so this extension will keep him in the fold for another year. It is actually the second time in his career New England has opted to extend the 27-year-old for another season after he landed on IR for the year.

  • Lands on IR

    McMillan (Achilles) was placed on injured reserve Thursday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: McMillan suffered a partially torn Achilles in practice, according to Jeff Howe of The Athletic. His move to IR will force him to miss the entire 2023 campaign unless he is released with an injury settlement. His absence will be a blow to the team's depth at linebacker and special teams unit.

  • Inks new deal with Patriots

    The Patriots re-signed McMillan to a one-year contract extension worth up to $2.2 million Monday, Mark Daniels of MassLive reports.

    Analysis: McMillan is now in line to remain in New England for at least one more campaign following Monday's agreement. The 27-year-old joined the Patriots in 2021 but missed the entire season due to a knee injury. He then returned in 2022 and amassed 35 tackles, one sack and one fumble recovery across 16 games.

  • Logs scoop-and-score TD

    McMillan recorded three tackles (two solo) and a fumble recovery for a 23-yard touchdown in Monday's 27-13 victory versus Arizona.

    Analysis: McMillan's first fumble recovery of the season came at the best possible time for New England, as he picked up a scoop-and-score fumble after safety Kyle Dugger stripped Cardinals wideout DeAndre Hopkins in the third quarter. This put the Patriots up 20-13 and helped the team pull away down the stretch of the second half. McMillan's has divided evenly his 392 snaps between defense and special teams this season, and he continued to do so with a 19:16 split Week 15. Expect McMillan to continue…read more

  • Good to go Sunday

    McMillan (thumb) is active for Sunday's game against Detroit.

    Analysis: McMillan has been listed as questionable back-to-back weeks but will be able to suit up in Sunday's contest. The 26-year-old has logged five tackles (four solo) through his first three games of the 2022 campaign.

  • Questionable for Sunday

    McMillan (thumb) is listed as questionable for Sunday's matchup against Detroit.

    Analysis: McMillan was also listed as questionable for Week 4's loss to Green Bay, but he was able to take the field with his thumb injury and ply 16 special-teams snaps. If McMillan is unable to suit up Sunday, Jahlani Tavai might see his snap count increase.

  • Limited in practice Wednesday

    McMillan (thumb) was listed as a limited participant on the Patriots' injury report Wednesday.

    Analysis: McMillan was listed as questionable for Sunday's loss to Green bay after sitting out the previous game due to a thumb injury, but he was ultimately able to suit up and play 16 special-teams snaps in Week 4. The 26-year-old has yet to record a statistic after tallying five tackles over 41 defensive snaps in the season opener, and he'll slot into a primary reserve role behind inside linebackers Mack Wilson and Ja'Whaun Bentley when healthy.

  • Iffy for Sunday

    McMillan (thumb) was a limited participant in practice Friday.

    Analysis: McMillan was questionable for Week 2 against the Steelers with the injury, but he was able to suit up. However, he played limited snaps, then proceeded to sit out Week 3 against the Ravens. If he is unable to play, it could lead to extra opportunity for Jahlani Tavai.

  • Ruled out Sunday

    McMillan (thumb) is listed as inactive for Sunday's game against the Patriots.

    Analysis: McMillan was a limited participant during both Wednesday's and Thursday's sessions, but his inability to practice Friday suggests he's not ready to suit up Sunday against Baltimore. The 242-pounder played though his thumb injury Week 2 against the Steelers, but he must've re-aggravated it sometime throughout the past week. Fellow linebackers Ja'Whaun Bentley, Mack Wilson and Jahlani Tavai are in line for expanded roles while McMillan remains out. His next opportunity to return to the playing…read more

  • Playing in Week 2

    McMillan (thumb) is active for Sunday's game against Pittsburgh.

    Analysis: It's likely McMillan picked up his thumb injury during practice as he made it through Week 1's matchup at Miami without injuring himself. The linebacker played 41 defensive snaps and logged five tackles (four solo) during the season opener. After missing the entire 2021 campaign due to a torn ACL, McMillan will look to return to his inside linebacker role.

  • Pops up on injury report

    McMillan is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Steelers due to a thumb injury,

    Analysis: McMillan presumably picked up the injury at practice, as he just popped up as a limited participant on Friday. His status for Sunday will likely depend on how his thumb is feeling closer to kickoff. If he ends up being unable to give it a go, Mack Wilson would presumably fill in for him at inside linebacker.

  • Clear for training camp

    New England activated McMillan off the active/PUP list Monday, Zack Cox of NESN.com reports.

    Analysis: McMillan's stint on the physically-unable to perform list lasted less than a week, and it appears he'll be ready to go for the first day of training camp Wednesday. Provided he doesn't suffer any more setbacks with his knee, he'll work in a depth role in the Pats' front seven and in a regular capacity on special teams.

  • Lands on PUP list

    McMillan (knee) was added to the Patriots' active/PUP list Thursday, Michael Rothstein of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: McMillan will not be allowed to practice during New England's upcoming training camp until he is removed from this list, a move that the Patriots can make at any time before the start of the regular season. The linebacker suffered a torn ACL last offseason, forcing him to miss the entirety of the 2021 campaign. McMillan is expected to make a full recovery from this injury, and he should push for a role at inside linebacker behind Ja'Whaun Bentley and Mack Wilson heading into the regular season.

  • Ready to make impact in New England

    McMillan (knee) said in May that he's "ready to go" after missing the entire 2021 campaign due to a torn ACL, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: McMillan signed a one-year, $1.15 million deal with the Patriots last offseason, but he never appeared in a regular season game for his new team after tearing his ACL while covering a kickoff during an offseason practice. McMillan said, "it's been a long year for me, but we're moving forward. After sitting back and watching, I'm ready to go." The 2017 second-round pick recorded 177 tackles across 19 appearances during his first two seasons in Miami, but he served more as a depth piece with Las…read more

  • Still held back by knee

    McMillan (knee) was limited during OTAs, Zack Cox of NESN.com reports.

    Analysis: Apparently it was premature to assume McMillan had fully recovered from the torn ACL he suffered in August of 2021. New England already has the middle of its defense locked down by Ja'Whaun Bentley, who notched 109 tackles last season, with recent trade acquisition Mack Wilson available in reserve. Assuming McMillan is ready to play come Week 1, he'll likely see most of his action on special teams.

  • Clean bill of health

    McMillan (knee) is participating in OTAs, Mike Dussault of the Patriots' official site reports.

    Analysis: McMillan missed last season after suffering a torn ACL during practice in August. The 26-year-old last played with the Raiders in 2020 and was more of a contributor on special teams than defense. How big of a role a healthy McMillan will play in the Patriots' linebacker rotation remains to be seen.

  • Extended through 2022

    McMillan (knee) signed a one-year extension Monday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: McMillan suffered a torn ACL during training camp so will not take the field this season. It's possible that his role expands in 2022 if he proves fully healthy, though he was likely headed for a role primarily on special teams while also serving as depth among the team's linebacker corps.

  • Suffers torn ACL

    McMillan was placed on injured reserve Saturday after he suffered a torn ACL in a recent practice, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: McMillan missed his rookie season in 2017 due to a torn ACL, and he's now dealing with the same injury in his other knee. The linebacker signed a one-year deal with the Patriots during the offseason after he played mostly on special teams with the Raiders last year, but he won't be back on the field until at least 2022.

  • Will sign with Patriots

    McMillan is expected to sign a one-year contract with the Patriots on Friday, Ben Standig of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Though Washington was keeping tabs on McMillan during free agency, it appears the linebacker's heading to New England. McMillan compiled a career high in tackles (105) and had two forced fumbles as a rookie with the Dolphins in 2018, but he spent more time on special teams than defense in his lone Raiders campaign in 2020.

  • Moving to Las Vegas

    McMillan was traded to the Raiders from the Dolphins on Saturday, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: This is a bit of a shocking transaction given Miami lost possible starting middle linebacker Vince Biegel (Achilles) early in the preseason, leaving Elandon Roberts and Kamu Grugier-Hill as the only possible veteran fill-ins. It's also strange from the Raiders' perspective given the team just signed Cory Littleton to a three-year, $36 million contract this past offseason which would seemingly make the McMillan acquisition redundant. It's unclear what type of compensation was given up to acquire…read more

  • Competing to retain starting job

    McMillan (hamstring) will compete to retain a starting role during training camp, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: McMillan and Vince Biegel are considered the early favorites for the other linebacker spots up for grabs alongside locked-in starters Kyle Van Noy and Jerome Baker. However, the Dolphins more than occasionally deployed five or more defensive backs in 2019, a pattern which could once again lead to regular two-linebacker sets. In the event that McMillan, who still has to overcome his weakness in coverage, is unable to cement himself as the clear No. 3 option and instead splits reps with Biegel,…read more

  • Lands on IR

    McMillan (hamstring) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday, Cameron Wolfe of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: With just two games remaining on the slate, it comes as little surprise that the injury suffered in Sunday's game with the Giants ends the 24-year-old's season. Andrew Van Ginkel saw a season-high 35 snaps in Week 15 and figures to see an uptick in playing time going forward.

  • Leaves with hamstring injury

    McMillan exited Sunday's game against the Giants with a hamstring injury.

    Analysis: McMillan suffered the injury during the second half and is listed as questionable to return. Vince Biegel is in line to receive additional snaps, in the meantime.

  • Upgrades to full practice

    McMillan (knee) was a full participant in Thursday's practice, Safid Deen of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

    Analysis: McMillan appears back to full health after sitting out Week 11's divisional loss to the Bills. He was limited in Wednesday's practice. Barring any setbacks, expect the third-year linebacker to handle his usual workload against the Browns on Sunday.

  • Out against Buffalo

    McMillan (knee) is listed as inactive Sunday against the Bills.

    Analysis: McMillan was limited in practice all week, so it's not too much of a shock to see him sit this one out after being considered a game-time call. Look for backup Vince Biegel to take on a heavy snap count as a result of McMillan's absence.

  • Will be game-time decision

    Coach Brian Flores said Friday that McMillan (knee) will be a game-time decision for Sunday's divisional contest against the Bills, Safid Deen of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

    Analysis: McMillan has come on as a run stopper for the Dolphins in recent weeks, so if he were to miss Sunday's game against the Bills it would be a notable blow to the team's defensive front. The 2017 second-round pick practiced in a limited capacity to begin the week, and he'll have one more opportunity to upgrade to full participation Friday.

  • Nursing knee issue

    McMillan (knee) was limited in Wednesday's practice, Armando Salguero of the Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: Since losing his rookie year to a torn ACL, McMillan has played every game since the start of the 2018 campaign. A potential absence for Sunday's game against the Bills affects fantasy owners in IDP leagues, as he's on pace for another 100-plus tackles this year. Keep an eye on his practice status over the next two days.
