Xavier Legette - Page 5 - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Picks up minor injury Legette was a limited practice participant Wednesday due to a hamstring injury.

Impact Participation of any kind at the start of the week is a good sign for Sunday availability. Legette showed no clear sign of injury in Sunday's loss to the Cardinals, logging 81 percent snap share and 81 percent route share, but he caught just one of eight targets for minus-two yards on a day when Carolina's other wideouts combined for 196 yards and two touchdowns. Legette's role could come into question soon, especially if Jalen Coker (quad) comes back from injured reserve at some point in October.

Disappoints in Week 2 Legette caught one of eight targets for minus-2 yards in Sunday's 27-22 loss to the Cardinals.

Impact The second-year wideout has managed just four receptions for eight yards through two games this season, a concerning start considering the Panthers attempted 90 passes over that span. However, there's still reason for optimism regarding Legette's season-long fantasy output, as his 15 targets tie Hunter Renfrow for the second-most on the team. Legette will look to turn that volume into production in a divisional matchup against the Falcons in Week 3.

Disappoints in Week 2 Legette caught one of eight targets for minus-2 yards in Sunday's 27-22 loss to the Cardinals.

Impact The second-year pro from South Carolina has managed just four receptions for eight yards through two games this season, a concerning start considering the Panthers attempted 90 passes for 445 yards over that span. However, there's still reason for optimism regarding Legette's season-long fantasy output, as his 15 targets tie Hunter Renfrow for the second-most on Carolina's offense through two weeks. Legette will look to turn that volume into production in a divisional matchup against the Falcons in Week 3.

Does little with Week 1 volume Legette caught three of seven targets for 10 yards in Sunday's 26-10 loss to the Jaguars.

Impact The second-year wideout saw a solid share of Bryce Young's attention, but rookie Tetairoa McMillan was the Panthers' clear top option in the passing game, and Legette's longest gain went for just nine yards. After an inconsistent rookie season in 2024, Carolina is hoping Legette can take a step forward as a sophomore, but this wasn't an encouraging performance from the 32nd overall pick in last year's draft. He'll look to deliver a more efficient effort on the road in Week 2 against the Cardinals.

Not in line to play Thursday Legette isn't slated to suit up for Thursday's preseason game versus the Steelers, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

Impact Legette started both of Carolina's first two exhibitions, combining for 17 offensive snaps and no targets in those appearances. The 2024 first-round pick is coming off a rookie campaign in which he compiled a 49-497-4 line on 84 targets across 16 regular-season games. Legette will be joined on the sidelines by fellow WRs Tetairoa McMillan, Adam Thielen and Brycen Tremayne, leaving the likes of Jalen Coker (illness), Hunter Renfrow, David Moore and Jimmy Horn as the potential options at the position Thursday. Legette's next chance for game action will come Week 1 at Jacksonville on Sunday, Sept. 7.
