The NFL Top 100 seems to have a bit of cat scratch fever.<\/p>\n

As announced on Tuesday morning, wideout Tetairoa McMillan has been named to the NFL Network’s annual countdown for 2026. The soon-to-be second-year receiver comes in at No. 87 on the list\u2014joining his teammates in quarterback Bryce Young (No. 98<\/a>) and defensive lineman Derrick Brown (No. 90<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Carolina selected McMillan, an All-American out of the University of Arizona, with the eighth overall pick<\/a> of the 2025 NFL Draft. He’d burst onto the scene, recording 70 catches for a franchise rookie record of 1,014 yards and seven touchdowns.<\/p>\n

McMillan would be named the AP Offensive Rookie of the Year<\/a>\u2014beating out the likes of quarterbacks Tyler Shough and Jaxson Dart, running back TreVeyon Henderson and fellow wide receiver Emeka Egbuka. He was the first Panthers<\/a> player to capture the honor since quarterback Cam Newton, who won it back in 2011.<\/p>\n
