McCollum (illness) does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Panthers, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.
McCollum opened the week as a DNP due to an illness, but he upgraded his practice participation over the next two days and has been cleared to play in Sunday's NFC South tilt. The fifth-year defensive back has 27 tackles (22 solo), seven pass defenses and one fumble recovery through six regular-season games.
