• Panthers' Xavier Legette: Continues to underwhelm Sunday

  6D ago • By RotoWire

  Legette caught two of three targets for 39 yards in Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Saints. Sunday's loss marked Legette's eighth game of the season with two or fewer receptions, though he still finished with the second-most receiving yards on the Panthers. The second-year pro has now caught 30 of 56 targets for 326 yards and three touchdowns across 12 appearances this year. Offensive consistency issues in Carolina likely make Legette too risky a fantasy option for a Week 16 matchup against the Buccaneers.

• Panthers' Xavier Legette: Just two targets vs. Rams

  21D ago • By RotoWire

  Legette caught one of two targets for one yard in Sunday's 31-28 win over the Rams. The second-year pro from South Carolina didn't benefit from the Panthers' run-heavy approach (40 rush attempts) during Sunday's win, failing to reach double-digit receiving yards for the third time this season. When Carolina did pass, Legette was outshined by Jalen Coker and Tetairoa McMillan, who combined to catch five of eight targets for 117 yards and two touchdowns. Legette now has 28 catches on 53 targets for 287 yards and three touchdowns through 11 games, and his week-to-week volatility makes him a risky fantasy option for the remainder of the year.

• Panthers' Xavier Legette: Three catches in Week 12 loss

  27D ago • By RotoWire

  Legette brought in three of five targets for 22 yards in the Panthers' 20-9 loss to the 49ers on Monday night. Legette tied with Jalen Coker for second in receptions on the Panthers for the night, although that equated to very modest yardage during what was an uninspiring performance for Bryce Young. Legette was coming off his second-highest receiving yardage total (83) of the season in Week 11 against the Falcons, so Monday night's downturn was particularly glaring. Legette next faces a talented Rams secondary in a Week 13 home matchup Sunday.

• Panthers' Xavier Legette: Opens week with full practice

  11/20/2025 • By RotoWire

  Panthers head coach Dave Canales said that Legette (hip) was a full participant in Thursday's practice, Joe Person of The Athletic reports. Legette didn't return to this past Sunday's 30-27 overtime win over the Falcons after exiting late in the fourth quarter due to a hip issue, but his ability to open Week 12 prep as a full participant suggests he was likely held out mostly as a precaution. Assuming Legette incurs no setbacks with the hip during practice sessions Friday and Saturday, he should head into Monday's game in San Francisco without an injury designation. Despite his early exit, the second-year wideout turned in one of his best games as a pro in the Week 11 victory, finishing with four catches for 83 yards and a touchdown on eight targets.

• Panthers' Xavier Legette: Expects to play through hip issue

  11/18/2025 • By RotoWire

  Legette (hip) said that he anticipates being available for Monday's game against the 49ers, Joe Person of The Athletic reports. Before injuring his hip late in the fourth quarter of Sunday's 30-27 overtime win over the Falcons and not returning, Legette delivered one of his best performances of the season, finishing the afternoon with four catches for 83 yards and a touchdown on eight targets. Though Legette acknowledged Tuesday that he's still banged up two days after the game, he's optimistic that he'll suit up in San Francisco, especially given that he'll have an extra day to heal up before the Panthers resume practicing Thursday.
