The Carolina Panthers and Tetairoa McMillan proved a late scare for those counting on him in fantasy football.

After being injury free on Wednesday and Thursday leading into Week 10, McMillan was added to the injury report on Friday with a hamstring injury and a designation as limited.

He's listed as questionable for Sunday's matchup with the lowly Saints.

It may have just been a scare and nothing more, though.

Is Tetairoa McMillan playing today?

Tetairoa McMillan is "expected to play" on Sunday for the Panthers against the Saints.

That's what ESPN's Adam Schefter reported late Saturday night.

McMillan will hold down his role as No. 1 target for Bryce Young.

UPDATE: McMillan is officially ACTIVE.

Tetairoa McMillan fantasy outlook

Deploy McMillan as you usually would.

He's probably no worse than a FLEX play against a weak Saints team. The Panthers should find themselves in the red zone enough to give McMillan a chance at a touchdown to go along with what should be a solid yardage day for him.

The Saints are also a bit spunky and might keep up for a while, which would keep McMillan involved the whole game.
