Rookie McMillian making an impact on special teams

quote:
“I think he has excellent potential,” Slocum said earlier this week when asked if McMillian could become one of his core special teams cover men/blockers. “He’s a stout guy. I like his build, his body type. He can really run well, and I think he’s tough.”

...

“I wanted to do it,” McMillian said. “I didn’t mind playing special teams at all. I didn’t want to just play defense. Special teams is just like playing defense. You still get to run down and tackle somebody. You’ve just got to have the will to do it.”


Glad he'll have a chance to see action there. I'm curious to how he performs on D during preseason

Once again, as in players like John Kuhn, the Pack goes for the football players as opposed to athletes they can turn into football players. Looks like another young guy with a love of the game...
If you're a rookie and you want playing time, that's how you get onto the field. If you're a good special teams player you will get noticed. It's how guys like Bush have managed to stick around as long as he has.
